Metal about Viking Mythology

Yeah. The title.

Ala Amon Amarth and Manowar - Gods of War. Which I like despite peoples hatred of it.

Einherjer?

TBH I doubt you'll get better than Amon Amarth.

this may be of use...

http://www.metal-archives.com/

Viewed on Internet Explorer you only see "Temporary Google search:", but in FireFox you see the proper "keyword search, in [category - artist, album, themes, etc.]" search bar

Keyword Search
Norse Mythology
Viking Mythology
Nordic Mythology

In
Lyrical Themes

personally I recommend from those search results: Wolfchant, Nomans Land, Einherjer, Falkenbach, Svartsot (uniquely 'death metal' sound compared to the others), Thyrfing, Mithotyn, XIV Dark Centuries (keyword 'vikings' on the last three)...but that's on a musical basis, I can't speak to the content itself.


other people will probably recommend Lumsk too, but I never liked 'em myself.

Enslaved are definitely my favorite.
Others (I'm probably wrong with some but meh) Borknagar, Ensiferum, Mithotyn, Moonsorrow, Runic, Thyrfing, Turisas, Windir.
