There is no other way to describe this band other than "Tolkien Metal." This is metal fit for dwarves, elves and invading Mordor. They have perfected their mixture of heroic steel and folky, mead-drenched anthems. On this latest release they've added an extra element of orchestra perfect for the great halls of Moria and honoring the fallen heroes by sharing a post battle pint (because, yes, it comes in pints).
The band comments: “‘We Were Warriors’ is a song about the Dwarves fallen in battle and their eternal rest inside the great halls of stone. A strong theme needed strong music, so we came up with one of the most astonishing songs we have ever composed: powerful riffs, massive orchestrations and epic choirs. We could not imagine a better epilogue for our latest album Wintersaga.”
Overall their new album, Wintersaga, is a highly entertaining balance of neck-breaking riffs dramatic orchestration. You can order the album HERE.
