Review

~~~~~~~~~~

Hailing all the way from Austria and bringing with them an epic blast of glory in the name of Mordor, who else could I be talking about but Summoning. I can't say enough about this album "Let Mortal Heroes Sing Your Fame" has come close to one of my all time favourite albums ever. Mainly taking their inspiration from a Tolkien background and creating thus a Tolkien type of atmospheric style very unique in the metal genre and now known as "Tolkien Metal". Although they first started out as a raw black metal band, they have since developed into pioneers, and the end result is this album right here. Each track in this album is a piece of master work in its own right. A glorious and immortal imprint in the history of metal that is most certainly destined to be a classic.
