BallsToTheWall
12.05.11 | Summoning is the perfect band to let people know your crazy. They are fucking delicious and I enjoy blasting Runes of Power anytime I can. |

12.05.11 | there are actually hundreds of metal bands with a Tolkien theme
this random list on RYM compiles some of them

Hyperion1001
12.05.11 | its because every person in a metal band has read tolkien a minimum of 3 times |
Ignimbrite
12.05.11 | inb4 Summoning
wait |
AngelofDeath
12.05.11 | List is cool. Needs some stuff weeded out for quality control, though. |
Ignimbrite
12.05.11 | Looked at that RYM list. That is a pretty fucking impressive list, yet I refuse to go through 422 random bands (many of which may suck) in search of a few good ones. Any specific recs, rasp? |
AngelofDeath
12.05.11 | Summoning |
Ignimbrite
12.05.11 | Well duh, it's Summoning |
rasputin
12.05.11 | if you're after Tolkien themed metal, most of what you hear will suck
I went through the list and picked a few bands that aren't shit
Abigor
Barathrum
Blind Guardian
Burzum
Doomsword
Graveland
Infected Virulence
Legion of Doom
Nachtfalke
Pagan Altar
Rotting Christ (early)
Summoning
Varathron
the genres are pretty varied, but most of these are black metal
definitely get onto Summoning and Nachtfalke and then to a lesser extent Abigor, Varathron and Graveland |
