I'm not worried. There's absolutely zero chance you'll like anything about Gnaw Their Tongues. If you can stay above fifty percent until the end I'll give you my computer.

And The Varangian Way isn't an old legend (though apparently "Cursed Be Iron" is based on an on old Finnish legend), it's a story the band wrote themselves. And "The Miklagard" overture is about the narrator entering Constantinople, just FYI. I can't think of many songs that evoke that kind of grandeur. Brilliant ending to that album. Their next album, Stand Up and Fight, tells the second half of the story.
