he was one of the three
born in the forest of iron
from the bloodline of Jotun
the prophecy was told that the three
will bring the end to this world
his sister was sent to the land of the dead
his brother thrown into the sea until the end of days
the eldest of the three in Asgard he thrived and grew to the Jotun of wolves
insidious and strong he spread fear into the heart of the Gods
spawned to end this world
now too strong to kill
the Gods must chain the wolf
with a chain unbreakable
Glepnir the magic chain by the dark dwarves from the land of the black elves
will chain the eldest son of Loki, the wolf of wolves until the end of days
Gleipnir made of
the sound of a cat`s feet
the roots of a mountain
the sinews of a bear
the beard of a woman
the breath of a fish
the spit of a bird

I'd say Havukruunu is the rightful holder of the Crown and the mantle of Quorthon. Epic choirs, vikingesque themes and tales from the other times, of the Finnish paganism back in the days before our ancestors were brought to the cross and forced to kneel while feeling the bloody sword of saviour on their throats made to kiss the hand of murderers who burnt thousands, tore down our holy places and took our holy days. Eyes teary I listen to these songs, never forgiving the crimes of the cross! Peikonmieli
A Pagan black metal masterpiece.
Folk and black metal elements fuse into one extremely catchy and awe inspiring album. This band does not disappoint from all the high praise sent it's way. Abyssius Murkraken
La traversée du désert n'aura pas duré quarante jours mais quatre longues années...
Avec Панихида, Батюшка renaît enfin de ses cendres et, bien que désormais seul (ou plus exactement entouré de deux chanteurs), Христофор accomplit un miracle. Il s'inscrit dans la continuité de Литоургиiа avec un black metal orthodoxe qui nous convie ici à une cérémonie dédiée aux morts. Sa vision est englobante : les mélodies, la gravité et le silence font toucher le paradis ; l'agressivité est luciférienne. Jordan Vauvert
Icelandic Pagan Black Metal. Like many others here, I wish I understood these dark tales - all I can do is let myself be transported by the music & what a ride it is! I could not possibly choose a favourite song, they are all so good. I recommend their entire discography!!! bmurator
