Varför går man inte direkt till källan istället för att ödsla tid på förståsigpåare och så kallade musikjournalister..
The promotional photos of the new album are a little bit weird. Why did you choose the images of a hunter and a viking warrior?
I am first of all a little bit surprised that you call my promo shots weird, when we have seen photos of the clowns of Dimmu Borgir, Immortal, Satyricon and other Black Metal parody bands for years now, but that's okay. I will leave it with that. Well... It is actually not a Viking Warrior. The armour and perhaps even the helmet on those photos would have been anachronisms even in the Viking Age, as they belong in the Classical Antiquity (and up to the beginning of the Viking Age for the helmet). It's a Northern European Warrior from late Classical Antiquity, wearing blue clothes (id est the Pagan colour), fighting or preparing to fight the Christian Jew-lackeys of the Roman Empire. I called the series of photos WargaR to stress this. You see WargaR is the proto-Nordic origin of Old Norwegian Vargr – which of course is the Old Norwegian origin of my own Norwegian first name, Varg. (If I ever use the name Wargaz I have probably lost myself somewhere in pre-history...). The Hunter is the same person, only metamorphosed.... He is living in a different age now, but is still fighting the same eternal enemy of Europe. Some warriors never surrender! They just change when they die and are reborn again – to pick up the sword and keep fighting for Europe (as a biological term)!
