Otyg

[Varganatt]

Anyone here who have heard them?

 

[Mark]

I've heard one or two tracks (MP3s sadly), but not enough to make a valid opinion - I liked what I heard, tho, although if I recall they're rather viking-esque?

 

[Varganatt]

Yes, swedish folkmetal. Personally I think they'r great, so I think you should download some more.

Otyg is a nice little side-project by Vintersorg. So they are a must to all Vintersorgfans.

Most people here have heard of them.

I'm still not at all sure where you're getting the viking-esque thing, Mark.

 

[Morgana]

yes we have heard of them

 

[benny]

Yeah Mark where do you get this Viking image? haha I don't think of Vikings when I hear Otyg anyway!

 

[Drexle]

No seriously... I see lots of folk dances, campfire tales, parties, and eventful journeys... but no battle axes, no longships, and no warpaint.

I know OF Otyg, have yet to hear any material. Anyone have a link to a homepage of theirs possibly. I would like a to hear a few samples.

See, that's the problem, the common misconception of what vikings are.....That's maybe why you don't picture the vikingness...

 

[Mark]

Well, by the Viking thing, I mean people lolling about, drunk on mead, clashing foaming mugs and singing jolly campfire songs

Mind you, I downloaded so much swedish/vintersorgy/finntrolly stuff when we first got the Vintersorg forum, I lost track of them So maybe I *haven't* heard Otyg?

 

[Varganatt]

Does any one know where you can get the lyrics?

 

[Lutz]

But they are too folkish for my taste..

 

[ThiagoCoB]
