So I got this idea with Mithotyn

[MelancholyVGS311]

....after looking for them on MySpace.  I made a page without thinking to ask if it was cool with the guys... so I messaged Falconer and asked if it was cool with them.  He sent me here to ask if it was OK to make a Mithotyn page.  I see the Falconer page was created by a fan.... I hope it's OK that I made a Mithotyn page.. hopefully?  

I'd be glad to delete it if it's a bad idea.

If it is cool, I'd love some advice on making it better.  I put some generic bio info on it that I thought was pretty common knowledge.. and tried to find some pictures and stuff.

Cool!! I have not known too much about this band but have heard many things about them/you guys from variuos posts here. They have been hard to get cds since I became aware. I will add and hopefully learn! Thanks dude!

[MelancholyVGS311]

Awesome, thanks!

If anything is not accurate I'll be glad to change it.

I have one Mithotyn album and I adore it - King of the Distant Forest.

Great tunes.. but to my ears, the vocalist sounds as if he's got a lot of phlegm backed up in his throat & he's trying to remedy it by gargling shards of glass. And I can't decipher ONE word he "sings". Sorry mate, but not my cup o' tea... though the music would sound AWESOME if  Stefan re-recorded/re-mixed the songs with Matthias' golden pipes!  :D

out of curiosity, how does one say 'mithotyn'? i never did figure that one out..... :oops:

[MelancholyVGS311]

I always assumed it was:   Mi  Tho Tin

hmmm.  Americanized pronunciation perhaps, I dunno.

As we in the band prenounced it was with the "th" spoken as in the word "brothel",
Apart from that you´ve got it right.

[Nightmares Desire]

SWEET i got it right! (that was me up there asking)

I agree with Guest, the music is really great, but the vocalist.. well, I've heard better.

Great band anyway, too bad you can't have both Falconer and Mithotyn at the same time :p

The vocalist is in my opinion one the really great things about mithotyn. Especially on the 2nd album, he sounds brutal and extreme, as you I would imagine a viking going berzerk. He is great at the high screams and fits mithotyn perfectly, I think.

Martinsson was indeed really good, but on the first album only, the vocals came across pretty natural then. It's true,  on King of the Distant Forest they are quite intense, but at the same time sound very strained and as if they were 'overprocessed'. On Gathered Around the Oaken Table they didn't feel strained any longer, but part of the 'overprocessed' feeling was still present.

If I recall correctly, no. Perhaps only in "Ragnarok", but that's the Japan (and limited ed. digipak) bonus.
