Mithotyn’s Viking Metal classic remastered and with new artwork by Kris Verwimp! First time on vinyl and digi-CD.

Four years after forming in Sweden and releasing several demos, Mithotyn’s patience and hard work paid off with the release of their first full length “In the Sign of the Ravens” in 1997.

This almost unheard-of band wasted no time recording their next record the same year and the result is “King of the Distant Forest”, containing 11 tracks.
Released in 1998, the band has more fully matured and developed their own sound.

This album could be labeled many genres. Viking Metal, Folk Metal, Black Metal, Pagan Metal, whatever you want to call it, doesn’t matter.  The riffs are highly catchy and have a heavy, fast, melodic and definite folk influence to them.  The vocals are quite Black Metal-ish and could best be described as high-pitched shrieks and growls.

There is even a hint of Power Metal influence in the songs.  The lyrics deal with Viking warriors, battles and mythology to create a semi epic medieval atmosphere.

Overall, this hidden gem is worth your time to listen to.  The music is aggressive and roars Metal! Folk Metal fans in particular should enjoy Mithotyn.
