I should have review it when I download it first, I was lazy. Tyr is for me now on their fourth album an acquired taste. I like the fact they sing in Faroese and that their songs are true folk from the Scandinavian countries and Iceland. They have this time only three songs in English but is not as brilliant as "Eric The Red" (my favorite still) and not as epic as "Ragnarok", they even had a re-recording of 'Hail To The Hammer' from their debut "How Far From Asgaard". So it's not a spectacular album but is very enjoyable, and if you likethe previous Tyr efforts you'll like this one too IMO. Also I hadn't had the chance to listen to it deeply (too many downloads fro cheking, too many purchases, zero time), so maybe it will grow more on me on the next weeks.

Devil's Slingshot - "Clinophobia"
Jorn - "Lonely Are The Brave" (spc. ed.).
OK, I have to talk a bit about this one, also I believe Jorn is an acquired taste. This album is heavy, heavier than the previous one IMO. But it's pure Jorn and the cover of 'Stormbringer' (one of the bonus tracks) proves the guy is a true rocker. I love also the cover/backcover of the booklet is computer generated but the statue of Phil Lynott is on it, plus a statue of Elvis inside the booklet pics and Jon Viggo Lofstad shows with a Motorhead t-shirt on the band pic. What can be more cool that that?
True rock or die.
