Ancient Rites
These guys any good? "Progressive viking black/death metal" sounds mighty tasty.

Anyone with some well thought-out opinions?

My opinions are not well thought-out, but:
They are not progressive. They just have some really traditional heavy metal elements in "Fatherland" and "Dim Carcosa", they even remind Running Wild sometimes (well not very much). These 2 i heard, their old material is supposed to be just black metal, simply.

I'm really not a fan...

In other, more off-topic news, "Ace of Spades" is the most metal song of all time.
