i quite enjoy Svartidauði, Sororicide, Potentiam (probably one of the top3 icy-land bands), Momentum (at least the EP i heard. you heard the album Haffy? how would you say it compares to the "Your side of the triangle" EP?), Solstafir and Fortið (back when i was still mildly entertained by folk metal)
