about

The odds really are against me
But I remember the Sayings of Har

"Cattle die and Kinsman die
thyself eke soon wilt die;
but fair fame will fade never
I ween, for him that wins it.

Cattle die and kinsman die
thyself eke soon will die:
one thing I wot will wither never
the doom over each one dead."

So what else to do?
Welcome in the spirit of Fury
Prepare against the coming storm and tide
Welcome both Victory or Valhalla!

Starting with a Ambient Opening, the track develops into a fast almost funky rock track with a spacey middle segment..

Verses 76 and 77 of the sayings of Har from the Lee M Hollander translation of The Poetic Edda
