FALKENBACH - In 40 Minutes

Welcome back to our series where we curate what we think are the best 40 minutes of music from an underrated band's career ... with headbangers and hard rockers in mind (ie. you won't be hearing many ballads!).

Basically, it's what we'd put on a single vinyl release (being limited to 20 minutes per side) if we were asked to put a Best Of record together to convince the uninitiated long haired miscreant that this band is worth checking out.

This episode is dedicated to Viking/black/folk unit ... Falkenbach. Criminally underrated, the band mix scathing black metal with haunting/lush folk melodies (acoustic guitar and vocal) that'll get you swinging a cask of mead and singing along.

If at least one of these tracks don't make it onto your personal wake/funeral music-list you must be dead!!!!
