Hmm...don't you have the ORIGINAL "Till Fjälls" record...?
Because it clearly states in the booklet:
"[Music & Lyrics by Vintersorg, except the melody
Line in the middle, it's taken from "The Hall Of
The Mountain King" by Edward Grieg]"

The riff in the beginning which made that song so popular is quite similar to "In the Hall of the Mountain King", so it might be adapted from it!

If you ever played the two melodies you'd see they're not that similar. And if you ever played some more Slayer songs you could clearly see that the tones used in Raining Blood melody are commonly used in their songs, in a way of speaking, they're the "Slayer-style" tones, and I think they came without the "Hall of the Mountain King" inspiration.

AH eys thank you guys for the answer, I've been asking everyone who originally did the tune, sadly no one knew!

I think that a man who is not a nationalist is a completley insane one...
I mean, come on, you have to love your country and be proud of it, honour it's history and traditions... The phrase For Kung och Fosterland exists in almost all of languages. (at least European).
I've seen you translated it as For King and Native Land, but you know that the Brittish say: "For the King and the Country". In my language it's "Za kralja i djedovinu". Every nation honours their ancestral traditions, but the problem today has become that it's declared as shameful to feel that way. (the crown evidence of this is the ban of that ice-cream in Sweden... just how more stupid can men get...)
