How would you find it if someone would come and tell you about a band from the Faroe Islands? I think obscure, that's how i felt when i discovered from where Tyr come from, but what i found more obscure was the fact that this band sounds so awesome! I' ve always considered viking metal as a genre that deserves to come from the countries of Northern Europe from where the almighty Vikings arose in the past and formed their own unique civilization and mythology simply because the past flows in their veins and they know how to express it in the most appropriate way. And this is what Tyr offer to the world of metal, some fabulous and heart-felt viking metal that won't disappoint the fans that are willing to cherish tales of the past through the blending of metal and traditional northern music!

This is one chill metal album. The whole thing is just one comfortable, catchy, and melodic (in an original way too!) piece of music. Interestingly enough, I can see how someone else can disagree completely with how I just described it. Love or hate affair I suppose. But definitely worth at least one listen...

I think they were still finding their 'sound' with this album, and were still a young band at the time. For me, half of the tracks are a bit dull and don't compare with some of the more memorable tracks. I really enjoyed 'The Edge' and I believe it to be one of Tyrs best album-starting tracks to this day. Some other favorites are Regin Smidur and Eric the Red. Overall, its a decent album but doesn't compare to their career from the Land album and onwards.
