	Tyr : Eric The Red - Review at Harvest Moon Music
		Týr have literally come from the middle of nowhere (the Faröe Islands, to be precise) to deliver a genre-crossing album of epic proportions.
		A relatively young band with one full-length album already behind them, Týr combine progressive, folk, power, and viking metal elements to create a unique style of folk metal accessible to fans of many styles - doom, fl, and Gothic in addition to those already mentioned.
		This is genuinely an album of standout tracks, each with much to set itself apart from those before and after, which of course results in a very interesting listen.

	TÝR - Official website
		Týr will go into Jacob Hansens Studio in December to record their fourht full-lenght album, due to be released by Napalm Records in April or May 2008.
		Týr's preceeding two albums, Ragnarok and Eric The Red, have been recorded at Jacob Hansens Studio.
		The co-operation between Týr and Jacob Hansen have been most appreciated by all parts involved so the decision for Týr to continue recording at Jacob Hansens Studio was not a hard one.

	Black Sabbath - Music Downloads - Online
		When they returned to action in July 1975 with their sixth album, Sabotage, they were welcomed back at home, but in the U.S. the musical climate had changed, making things more difficult for an album-oriented band with a heavy style, and though the LP reached the Top 20, it did not match previous sales levels.
		But the singles did not improve the album's commercial success, which was again modest, and Osbourne left Black Sabbath for a solo career, replaced in June 1979 by former Rainbow singer Ronnie James Dio (b.
		The album was a modest commercial success, but the new band began to fragment immediately, with Hughes replaced by singer Ray Gillen for the promotional tour in March 1986.

	Black Sabbath : TYR - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		Gothic in approach, but crushing guitar riffs galore, TYR followed Black Sabbath's previous return to the spotlight by less than a year.
		Again leaning heavily on the darker side of life, or perhaps, death, TYR is a set of tunes loosely based around the Norse tales of Odin and the gods of war.
		With TYR, Black Sabbath sound as serious as can be.

	Black Sabbath Online: Tyr
		Tyr was by then regarded as Odin's son (or possibly of the giant Hymir).
		Tyr is represented as a man with one hand, because his right hand was bitten off by the gigantic wolf Fenrir (in old-Norse, the wrist was called 'wolf-joint').
		Thor and Tyr are indeed two separate deities, and TTBOMK, Thor's cult was the longest surviving after the Christianization of Scandinavia, due in part to the hammer's resemblance to a cross (remind me to show you the Thor's hammer I occasionally wear).

	Tyr
		Tyr, the only God who had enough heart to sacrifice a hand in order to trap the wolf Fenrir.
		Tyr, one of the most powerful Gods in the Norse religion, destined to perish in the Ragnarok after a valiant battle.
		Coming from the cold winter of the Faer Oer islands, Tyr are a band which in the space of two albums managed to command respect from any metalhead worthy of this name.

	Aesir
		Tyr was possibly the son of Odin and of Frigg or the giantess Fjörgyn (Fjorgyn), and younger of brother of Thor.
		Tyr seemed to be one of the earliest gods to be worshiped by the Teutonic people, known as Tiw or Tiwaz.
		Thereafter, Tyr was known as the One-handed As and feeder of the wolf.

		I'm still impressed by the results of the album and it was not that easy for me to accept their style the first time i've met the songs.
		They've released a first album in Jan. 2002 entitled "How Far was Asgaard" which i haven't heard but one thing is for sure so i can't tell a damn word about that album, so i'll focus myself on their latest one "Eric The Red".
		Tyr is a very original band who likes to walk the origianal paths of making Metal music.

	Transcending the Mundane (TTM): Listen / Buy / Read Review of Ragnarok by Tyr
		Tyr hail from the Faeroes, an obscure chain of islands in the North Atlantic known mostly for sheep.
		Ragnarok is the band’s third album and may be their breakthrough, as it improves both their musicianship and songwriting while continuing their unique sound that was already in evidence on earlier releases.
		This could be a surprising addition to my favorite albums of the year, and I recommend any fans of the several genres mentioned, especially folk, power and progressive metal give it a chance.

		We didn't play abroad in 2005 concentrating all our energy on the third album and to get a deal with a record company and a booking agent, which we knew was crucial to secure the future for the band.
		The recording and producing of the album was very straightforward although we knew had very much to do in a short period of time.
		We had just failed in finding what we thought was a qualified singer and we recorded this album in a hurry convinced that it had to be done as soon as possible, if only with a mediocre result, so as to keep our musical heads above waters with all the lien-up problems and what not.

		First off, the album cover is breathtaking, and immediatley draws you to the cd, being a viking and nordic maniac, i jumped at it.
		Admittedly those bands might sound better on the first listen but after that you realise that they are nothing more than souless songs with lyrics without much meaning, and good music added to it, but with little thought for originality or qulality.
		Tyr is SO much more, after the first listen you begin to notice many new things, and you become accustomed to their very unique progressive epic edge.

		TYR is from the Faroe Islands of Denmark and they use their background in the history of this mysterious-sounding place from which to draw the basis of their music.
		The fact that the majority of this album is also sung in the language of the ancient Faroe’s just adds icing to the proverbial cake, as numbers like “Regin Smidur” & “Olavur Riddaroros” indicate, and the cover of the Celtic traditional piece, “The Wild Rover” slides in to fit perfectly like a battle-glove.
		It is difficult for me to describe any further just how awesome or original an album this is. To say that it is up with the very best, not only of prog-metal, but of any heavy music at all, of any year, is completely accurate and no exaggeration whatsoever.

	Amazon.com: TYR: Music: Black Sabbath (Site not responding. Last check: )
		For me this album is the most underrated in the entire Sabbath catalogue and remains one of my all time favorites from the band.
		This is an odd album for Sabbath and not really at all like anything else they have done, but for me it ranks right up there with "Heaven And Hell", and "Paranoid" as one of their best.
		Setting aside the issues of where this album ranks in the Black Sabbath catalog, or how vocalist Tony Martin stacks up against his predecessors, the fact remains that TYR is a criminally underrated yet nearly perfect power metal album.

	PyroMusic.net - Review of: Tyr - Eric The Red
		Although Tyr can certainly be placed in the metal subgenre, the emphasis on this album is on melody, a trait which you will find in abundance here on outstanding tracks such as "Regin Smidur" and the Irish standard "The Wild Rover." It's this attention to melody that makes the music of Tyr so enjoyable.
		With themes steeped in Norse mythology, on might expect Tyr to be in the vein of fl metal, yet their style, although containing distorted guitar — is certainly nothing of the sort.
		Instead, Tyr is deeply focused in providing a rock-based sound which often branches out into the realms of progressive metal, yet always retains a classic element about it that remains true to the roots of Scandinavian music.

		Now we are Tyr and we have come to terms with the fact that we are Faeroese.

		Tyr has a unique sound which is hard to label or describe.
		He gave us a couple of suggestions and we ended up picking the one based on the song 'Ragnarok' as you see on the cover as it is. Jan did very thorough background search before drawing this and he kept it very close to the authentic look.
		We plan to release the albums we have in the contract with Napalm Records and we intend to grow to the point where we can make a good living of music, we simply want to go all the way to the top by making the best music there is.

	Metal Reviews - Metal Coven Webzine - Metal Reviews - Tyr - Ragnarok
		Tyr is one of those bands that be classified as Viking metal in its truest form.
		What sets Ragnarok apart from Eric the Red is that instead of focusing on one man's journey, Ragnarok's concept is based on the idea that even though the fates of the Gods are known in advance, they choose to fight until the end.
		Tyr's music reflects that ideal without dumbing down the sound in order to gain new fans.

		Sabbath's second album is considered by many to be their best album of all time.
		Sabbath finally takes a break, and after two years returns with a stellar album, which is at least in part about the real life problems they were having with their management.
		This album is identical to the regular version, with the two exceptions of the liner notes being in Japanese, and the inclusion of a track "What's the Use?" which doesn't appear anywhere else on a Sabbath album.

	Tyr - Eric The Red
		In fact before I knew of their Faroese origins, I gathered that Tyr are from some part of Northern Europe, as many of their songs are traditional folk songs interpreted in the Faroese language, which is very close to Icelandic.
		Where most similar bands often have something like a dark or fl metal background, Tyr seem happy enough to quote prog metal as one of their influences.
		Eric The Red is Tyr's second album, and was released on a small Faroese label already three years ago.

	TYR
		We never expected it to work as well as it does and we never felt that we were about to make something spectacular.
		Týr is the primal deity of the Germanic tribe; his name means ‘god’, his body is marred by battlescars and he is the bravest of the gods.
		Although we like that album it has not inspired us directly in style or playing.

	Black Sabbath - Tyr « Rock Of Ages
		To then achieve a new deal with the IRS label and turn in a couple of pretty strong albums with a fairly settled line up around the turn of the decade was actually quite a surprise.
		The centrepiece of the album is cemented around a trilogy of tracks that initially launched side two of the vinyl release.
		Anno Mundi is a superbly constructed album introduction that effectively demonstrates what a great set of pipes Tony Martin possessed even if he failed to match his predecessor in the live arena and also what power this line up could produce.

	TYR - Black Sabbath - Music Records Shopping at dooyoo.co.uk
		TYR was one of the albums Black Sabbath made during the years where they found it hard to keep a stable line-up and they constanly had musicians joining and leaving the band.
		As you would expect this had a bad effect on the production of their albums and even though TYR is a great album it isn't as good as many of Sabbath's others.
		TYR is plagued with the same problem that Headless Cross had during its recording the year before (1989) this problem is a lack of bass.
