The Varangian Way CD

Artist: TURISAS
Label: Century Media

Release Year: 2007
Artist Origin: FIN
Style: expressive relentless folk pagan metal

sophomore full-length release by this uprising force of sword-wielding berserkers firmly cements band's name within the hallowed halls of relentless pagan folk viking metal genre, evidently pushing it few steps further, creating quite unique, cinematic and progressive experience that employs narration, massive choirs and surprisingly apt accordion parts, balancing on the edge of eclectic with no fear to be accused of a cheap kitch; extended Director's Cut edition comes with updated artwork and two audio bonuses - a hit single and Boney M Rasputin cover
