This new album of Burden of Ymir has some of the lilting harmonies which I struggle with in most folk metal, but in this case they are not overdone. They are also tempered with excellent riffs and a solid rhythmic foundation. There is even some quality lead work which wouldn't be out of place in a traditional heavy metal track from the 80s.
