Dark Avenger Authentic pagan music from a talented author and musician, a much needed escape from the modern world. It's very rare to find music that truly feels ancient - this album is something special. Favorite track: Sahsnot Galdor (Saxnote Galdor).

James Dunne-Bennett Excellent, I live a few miles from where the Great Heathen Army overwintered near Appledore and have walked it's grounds with my dog many times. With this you can imagine the Anglo Saxon Scops musing over victories and defeats in a recently discoveried timber hall not to far away from my home... Favorite track: Sonne Golthiade (Sun Golthiade).
