Sorry to be a pain but why are so many peaple missing the Einherjer show?
It really depends on the songs. I love "Norwegian native art", but "Odin owns ye all" is pure crap for example. And their music isn't headbangable at all, it wasn't created for live shows. Though it would be fun to sing along "Dragons of the north".
