Synopsis

Product Description

The wait is finally over! The Faroe Islands' Vikings deliver a masterpiece of true Viking Metal with their latest album "Land". Impressively combining powerful choruses and energetic guitar work with the traditional Folk melodies of their ancestors, TYR has composed a collection of hymns bound to shake the foundations of Midgard, topping them off with a unique musical rendition emphasized by a clear and powerful sound. "Land" is undoubtedly an album that will assure TYR's entry into Valhalla.

The Ltd. Edition version of Land comes housed in deluxe digipak format with a bonus DVD featuring TYR s Wacken Open Air set from 2006.

CD Reviews

Not bad at all

(3 out of 5 stars)

"Tyr fourth studio album shows crearly that the band has a sound and a niche from which they will not stray out. The combination of metal and Nordic folk makes them a very unusual band and a true viking metal one. Although my preferred one is "Eric The Red" and this one lack at least one catchy song (like 'Valhalla' in "Ragnarok") is commendable the effort put in the music and the interesting fact that only the two long songs 'Ocean' and 'Land' are in English while the rest is all in Faroese, which to me is part of the appeal of the band."
