Top 5 Norwegian Bands (if you can).

[requiem]

Here's a challenge.

Considering it's got its own forum, I'd like to see some of its participants favourite Norwegian Bands....

Here's mine:

1. Mayhem
2. Emperor
3. Dimmu Borgir
4. Arcturus
5. Theatre of Tragedy (first 3 albums)

There are plenty of others I could name, but these would have to be it.

 

[Eldzik]

man... hard choice, but:
1 Arcturus
2 DarkThrone
3 Malignant Eternal
4 Borknagar
5 Solefald

 

[requiem]

Yeah, Borknagar aren't bad. I only own their latest album though, so I'm not all that familiar with them...

Considering Norway's population, it's quite extraordinary that so many amazing bands are from that area.
