The Ruiner's Intro to Bad Ass Music You've Probably Never Heard

I don't know how popular this will be, I just figured that I see a lot of music posted around here that I consider "mainstream" and I wanted to see how many people here are into "other" kinds of music. I will be presenting random musical acts on a random basis. All kinds of music will be presented (some exceptions) and I hope that I will be able to open the door of musical exploration for all interested. Of course, all selections go best with a good smoke!

So, to start this off I am posting a video by a Finnish group (Swedish speaking) called Gjallarhorn. Something mellow to go with this early sunday morning. enjoy!

Comments are welcome...

Interesting stuff. That bass is crazy! (Too bad about the recording quality though).
I think I've heard Gjallarhorn before, but am not really familiar with them. I've always liked when bands mix new/old, traditional/modern. Have you heard of Valravn? I discovered them not too long ago, and really like them.

Here's a Valravn tune:
