5.0 out of 5 stars Classic Viking Metal..., December 11, 2005

I just found out about this band through a music store in my area and at first I was iffy about buying it, but it was the best foregin album I have bought in a long time. To me this album is a classic, the whole album changes pace throughout the songs and they don't sound the same. The vocals are well arranged and produced along with all the rest of the music, the only song that doesn't really get me is the last song, it is too slow for and it only picks up for about a minute or so. But I do like the aggression from the guitars and drums mixed with the keyboards and the extra deep percussion behind all of it. Over-all this album desereves a listen if you are a metal/viking metal fan...it is well worth the money.

Einherjer has all the goods that it takes to make a really good (viking) metal band. excellent musicianship, tight playing, big choruses, leather, etc. (their sound could be compared to Mithotyn) but there is just something about them that just doesn't feel right to me. i'm not sure what it is. these songs sounded great and got their hooks in me upon first listen; but the second time around, i could barely listen to it. there's an element to this band that feels a bit contrived...but i always have a difficult time trying to figure out what that element is. the bottom line is...Einherjer is a pretty good band, but there's many other bands creating this sort of epic "viking" metal who simply do it better. at least Norwegian Native Art is better than their last album Dragons Of The North...that was a real snooze-fest.
