To Mend The Oaken Heart

To Mend The Oaken Heart
(Neat Metal - 1998)


Ragnarok (U.K.) is a pagan black metal band from the Northeast of England. Their album To Mend The Oaken Heart has several spoken intros and medieval choirs which partly sound like the singers had a few drinks too much. Other opening passages sound like Skyclad. Then shouter Deörth joins in and sounds like Martin Walkyier on speed! Or perhaps more like Donald Duck on speed?!?! Ragnarok (U.K.) present black metal, sometimes more a per­siflage then a serious band, but so it's funny...
