This one was a little goofy to me. The riffs and vocals attempted to emulate the “epic” feel as captured by Bathory’s Viking Metal material, but unfortunately, they didn’t pull it off. Doesn’t sound dark, instead a bit silly. The music is alright in most places, but nothing really gripping or memorable.

To make matters worse, it has overlong vocal interlude tracks that again, are trying to be epic or whatever, and they just don’t work. It’s not that the vocalist is bad, just that execution is hammy and cartoonlike and I really don’t think that’s what they were going for.

The tracks that go for straight Black Metal like Thornspawn Chalice are better, but nothing mind-blowing. Overall I find it overrated and forgettable.
