In 1990s Sweden, the Viking metal band Mithotyn made a significant impact on subsequent artists despite their short period of activity.

Active from 1992 to 1999, they could be said to have laid the foundations for the later folk metal scene.

The piece introduced here is the title track from their 1998 classic album, “King of the Distant Forest.” This song’s sound—woven from melodic guitars and weighty keyboards—creates a sense of immediacy as if an ancient battlefield were unfolding before your eyes.

It portrays the tale of a solitary king reigning over a distant forest, and his pride and sorrow seem to surge into your chest alongside fierce screams.

The dramatic development and lyricism of this work will be irresistible to those who love the grand worldview of Norse mythology.

It’s a masterpiece that condenses the appeal of Viking metal, where wildness and beauty coexist.
