When did this get added to the site? I thought they might have been blacklisted to be honest. Anyway, exceptional record worthy of a follow up.

Lucas added them in 2010...the Temnozor tie-in doesn't warrant blacklisting as the lyrics (according to MA) don't pertain to NS themes.

Yeah I didn't think they were myself, just thought MS might be a bit sensitive about the link.

This great album represents the awesomeness of tremolo picking. Stellar record.

In that case we might as well get sensitive about Drudkh being here

Technically we should be sensitive about Burzum being here.

The way I see it... If Drudkh and Walknut is here, there's no problem of Burzum being here as well.
You said it yourself, Walknut is here because there's nothing NS in the music at all (so far). Same with Drudkh and Burzum... It's just that simple to me.

Just hearing this. Shit. I missed this one. It was actually released the day after I made an account on this site
I really like that maelstromous sound the guitars make. It reminds me why I like Hate Forest (regardless of the National socialist view) in that way but HF are more of an auditory rape... in a good way...

Thanks to Joe's staff pick of Nasheim, I checked this out. Really great stuff! This might end up being a 9 for me.

I'm in the minority here :x I never completed a full play through of the album although I'm a big sucker for this kind of sound and the Burzum esque riffs.

Motherland Ostenvegr is great and the rest of the album is good, however I'm afraid to say that this never reaches the glory of early Drudkh.

It actually does reach that level. One of the best BM albums ever.

Listening to this album while reading old Norse poetry and mythology. Poetic Edda and Prose Edda, Neil Gaiman’s Norse Mythology. Got me feeling like Mirmir on that Gjallarhorn shit.
