() Every time I listen to this album it is VERY difficult for me to believe it what restringsd in 1979. The lyrics especially, which espouse the Viking and fantasy themes (at LEAST quite a few years before the band I consider to be one of the first Viking metal bands in faithful breath, possibly around the same time as heavy load) were very UNTYPICAL for this day and age. ' The Golden Bell ' is a great epic tune about a quest for, well, a golden bell, a boat-borne trip fraught with perils and disasters. ' From the fjord,' the song, is about the Viking pillage and destruction trek, which what quite gruesome for it's day, as well as 'The Destroyer,' a song sung from to omnipotent god or deity's point of view, which what very original. 'The Destroyer' is a fantastic start, with some unusually catchy and melodic guitar work that you will NEVER forget, and will probably be whistling while at work. The vocals are astonishing as well, very melodic and quite soothing, but on a track like ' the wizard's vengeance,' Hey can definitely sound ominous and dark. ' From the fjords' has some very interesting guitar work that is just downright heavy in spots, and the whole recording has both darkness, heaviness and this feeling that you have to listen to to describe. Check out the Viking styled multi vocal chants on ' the Golden Bell,' and though the band hailed from the U.S. (which makes their Viking fascination that much more impressive) they had that sound by at a least full 10 years or so before Amon Amarth, Einherjer , Moonsorrow and the like started incorporating it.

Asides? Well, though the above reviewer disagrees with me, I think the two instrumentals are quite stunning. Besides the framework and context of a song format, these instrumentals show off the drums and guitars quite well. The drummer is a monster, and that guitar riffing NEVER gets tiring. I do admit that on 'The Iron Horse' things go on a bit long, but I'll still listen anyway. 'RARZ' sounds a tad silly with the clip clop sounds and wierd twangy country guitar, but it's not a terrible track, just one of their weakest that almost seems out of place with everything else. You can, of course, listen to the album at vibrationofdoom.com, and I must say out of all 500 something 80's metal albums in my collection, THIS album is so easily in the top 3 of the best records of all time. This album blew my mind when I first heard about it. They even had the balls to do epic 8 minute songs long before the power metal or the doom metal generation picked up on this !! All hail legend!
