08.20.22 | I've always felt that Tolkein's work is the reason power metal exists in the first place. |

Yes, that was Varg's project before Burzum, actually. It was more in the vein of Tormentor riffing-wise. |

08.22.22 | Kevbogz yeah there's a chance Oathbreaker isn't, but i have a feeling it is Tolkien. "The Army of the Dead, also known as the Dead Men of Dunharrow or Oathbreakers, were Men of the White Mountains, cursed to remain in Middle-earth by Isildur after they abandoned their oath to aid him in the War of the Last Alliance."
Fell voices describes the Dark Riders - "They appeared to have cast aside their hoods and black cloaks, and they were robed in white and grey. Swords were naked in their pale hands; helms were on their heads. Their cold eyes glittered, and they called to him with fell voices." |
