Green vinyl with lyric insert. Limited 333 numbered copies

Einherjers album Norwegian Native Art is a pagan pleasure. Thelyrical theme is of course Norse (Odin´s ravens, Yggdrasil tree,etc,) so let´s get to the music. `Wyrd of the Dead´ starts off thealbum with a slow-to-midpaced, but vigorous, tempo, and you aregreeted by a uniquely acidic growl with a reasonable amount ofintelligibility; no fear of any Halford impersonations here!Einherjer uses a distinctive mix of rhythms and instrumentplacement. They have a signature groove, without just riffing asfast as possible, that makes you nod and swing your head, pump yourfists and swing a sword… then do it all in unison. You get thesense they are really inspired and are not just a formula band.Even though the rhythm guitar isn´t as obvious or as spectacular assome tech-death bands, it is very strong, well played, gives themusic direction and always stays exciting. The drums offer anattention-grabbing, rhythmic and artistic yet simple style to thealbum. The keyboards are constantly present, but are used only assupport and never seem out of place. Lead guitar is melodic andstructure-based, although rare. Andy LaRocque (King Diamond) putsin a typical LaRocque lead on song 2, Doomfaring. The bass is wellmixed in the production and gives a full sound to the record. Thefinal song, Regicide, is a type of folky, atmospheric down-temposong with a nice dark tone. Clean male and female vocals dominatethis last track: male/duet/female. Finally it ends with a minute ofraspy reprise and a stressful moment as the vocals and musicsuddenly subside. The end product is unmistakably one of the finestViking metal specimens existing; therefore if you like the genre atall, this album is more than worth a try!
