Viking Metal

Any Viking Metal recommendations that are similar to Bathory?

Einherjar, Falkenbach, Thyrfing.

For other viking metal: Turisas, Tyr, Amon Amarth, Ensiferum, but they don't sound like Bathory.

Bathory were very innovative in the viking metal genre, and no one really sounds like them in my opinion.

Shit that somewhat resembles Hammerheart era Bathory:

Graveland - Creed of Iron
Graveland - Dawn of Iron Blades
Morrigan - Headcult
Iuvenes - Riddle of Steel
Zemial - In Monumentum
Woodtemple - Voices of Pagan Mountains
Gjallarhorn - Nordheim
Nachtfalke - Hail Victory Teutonia

I wouldn't necessarily call any of this stuff "Viking" Metal, but it's as close to the Hammerheart sound that I've ever heard.

I'd also propose DoomSword (especially the album Let Battle Commence) and Primordial (Spirit The Earth Aflame) but we may be going a bit too far now...

PS: MalignParadigm, awesome avatar, awesome record.
