WolfGang Angrboda just f** rocks! Favorite track: Angrboða.

AK Drummer 78 The atmosphere on this is almost crushing, but not in a Portal kind of way. It's more precise than that. Angboða was chosen as my favorite track because it immediately establishes the mood for this listening experience, and the other songs follow suit very well. No fillers. If you're tired of that avant garde for the sake of being avant garde, slickly produced modern black metal and want something that takes you back to the glory days without being a retro knock-off, this is your album. Favorite track: Angrboða.

Dark Avenger Killer Danish black metal with lyrics in Old Icelandic taken directly from Snorri Sturluson. Concept album based around Loki, the giantess Angrboda and their three children. An excellent musical display of the anti-cosmic forces of Norse mythology. Favorite track: Angrboða.

Milo modern/folk black metal perfected. nothing was reinvented here but it's really fine playing. dark, cold, scratchy and imaginative stuff. leave your mind unoccupied for a minute and follow old myths retold one more time. perfect album length. Favorite track: Fenris.

Majbritt Levinsen Their third album ‘Angrboða’ from 2012 is in my opinion their best and it also differs from the 2 past releases as it is sung in old Icelandic and the lyrics are from the original Gylfaginning by Snorri Sturlurson, read more about this at their Bandcamp page. This 5 track album feels more complete and well worth a listen.

Enn átti Loki fleiri börn. Angrboða hét gýgr í Jötunheimum. Við henni gat Loki þrjú börn. Eitt var Fenrisúlfr Annat Jörmungandr Þat er Miðgarðsormr Þriðja er Hel En er goðin vissu til At þessi þrjú systkin Fæddust upp í Jötunheimum Ok goðin rökðu til spádóma At af systkinum þessum Myndi þeim mikit mein Ok óhapp standa Ok þótti öllum

Ok er þau kómu til hans Þá kastaði hann orminum Í inn djúpa sæ Er liggr um öll lönd Ok óx sá ormr svá At hann liggr í miðju Hafinu öll lönd Ok bítr í sporð sér. En þá er Þórr Lagði upp árarnar Greiddi hann til vað Heldr sterkjan Ok eigi var öngullinn Minni eða óramligri Þar lét Þórr koma Á öngulinn uxahöfuðit Ok kastaði fyrir borð Ok fór öngullinn Ok er þér satt at segja At engu ginnti þá Þórr miðr Miðgarðsorm En Útgarða-Loki hafði

Hel kastaði hann í Niflheim Ok gaf henni vald Yfir níu heimum Éljúðnir heitir salr hennar, Hungr diskr hennar, Sultr knífr hennar, Ganglati þrællinn, Ganglöt ambátt, Fallandaforað þresköldr hennar, At hon skyldi skipta Öllum vistum með þeim

Úlfinn fæddu æsir heima, Ok hafði Týr einn djarfleik At ganga til at ok Gefa honum mat. En er goðin sá, Hversu mikit hann óx Skaða þeim þá fengu Æsirnir Hvern dag, Vargr Allar spár Sögðu at Hann myndi Vera lagðr Til þat ráð At þeir gerðu Fjötur allsterkan Er þeir kölluðu Læðing, ok báru Hann til úlfsins Ok báðu hann reyna Afl sitt við fjöturinn En úlfinum þótti Sér þat ekki Ofrefli ok lét þá fara Með sem þeir vildu. En it fyrsta sinn

Er úlfrinn spyrnði við Brotnaði sá fjöturr. Svá leystist hann ór Læðingi. Því næst gerðu Øsirnar annan Fjötr hálfu sterkara Er þeir kölluðu Dróma, Ok báðu enn úlfinn Reyna þann fjötur ok Tölðu hann verða Mundu ágætan mjök At afli, ef slík Stórsmíði mætti eigi Halda honum. En úlfrinn hugsaði, At þessi fjöturr Var sterkr mjök, Ok þat með, At honum hafði Afl vaxit Síðan er hann braut Læðing - kom þat í hug At hann myndi verða At leggja sik í hættu Ef hann skyldi Frægr verða Ok lét leggja Á sik fjöturinn. Ok er æsir tölðust Búnir, þá hristi úlfrinn sik ok Laust fjötrinum á jörðina ok Knúðist fast at, spyrnði við Braut fjöturinn Svá at fjarri flugu brotin Svá drap hann sik ór Dróma Þat er síðan haft fyrir orðtak At leysi ór Læðingi eða drepi ór Dróma, þá er einhver Hlutr er Ákafliga
