I would say "Five Hundred and One" as well...

To chose which track is best is like choosing the best flavour of Ben and Jerry's...that said, 'Fields of Gold' is my favourite.

I really love the whole album, but I really really love To Holmgard And Beyond, A Portage To The Unknown, Cursed Be Iron, In The Court Of Jarisleif, Five Hundred And One and The Dnieper Rapids, but I think I voted for The Dnieper Rapids because I think the beginning to it is awesome

It's hard.....I think it's a tie between Miklagard Overture and In the Court of Jarisleif

Both are epic songs.

I have three songs that I listen to the most: A Portage to the Unknown, Fields of Gold and Five Hundred And One. It's pretty hard to choose the best but...I'll say Five Hundred And One.

Cursed be Iron always gets my juices flowing.

"Cursed Be Iron" for me.

Finally the album is starting to grow on me, after 4 or 5 listens. Still no "Battle Metal" however.

What's going on? In the Court of Jarisleif and The Dnepier rapids are getting utterly pwned in the poll I see...

I still think you could have done a wicked video for 'Jarisleif' but it was a B side for 'Rasputin' instead

Holmgard and Beyond.... Perfect starter

Starstruck · June 21st, 2008, 10:52 AM

In order of preference:

1. Miklagard Overture
2. To Holmgard And Beyond
3. Dnieper Rapids/Fields Of Gold/A Portage To The Unknown/Cursed Be Iron/Five Hundred And One
8. In The Court Of Jarisleif

The number 1, 2 & 8 are pretty clear for me, but the others are too hard to put in any particular order. I think that there's no other album by anyone where all the songs fit so well within the storyline.
