Negative Positive
Title: 
Review: Falkenbach returns with more of the Viking/Folk/Epic Metal they've been known for throughout the years and once again they fail to disappoint. The album begins with "Heathen Foray", a song I swear I heard on their 1998 album Magni Blandinn Ok Megintiri..., but it seems to have been given a reworked touch here. The same applies to song #6, "Laeknishendr". If I'm keeping count correctly, this is the 3rd time this song gets re-recorded. The rest of the compositions show the majesty of clean vocals if used the right way, along with choir chanting, giving an aura of mental landscapes Viking era-Bathory like in the song "Heralder". New tracks like "Walkiesjar" and "Of Forest Unknown" display a degree of freshness and epicness. Overall, it's great to see this band hasn't lost its style and keeps producing majestic Metal that lasts for ages.
