I've got an album Vikernes made in prison. Not bad considering all they 
would give him was a synthesizer. I prefer the more traditional Norwegian 
bands.

Heilung is a mix. It was formed in Copenhagen but has Norwegians, Danes, 
and Germans in the band.

Faun is German but has the same feel. This one even has a bagpipe of 
sorts.

When the crops were in there was nothing better to do than take a trip to 
Britain or Ireland and liberate ill found wealth from monasteries and 
other soft targets. Then there were the ones who went in the other 
direction and became the RUs.

I've been reading James Nelson's 'The Norseman Saga' series.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_L._Nelson

Thorgrim Night Wolf and his son go off viking with his father-in-law to 
Ireland. I'm on the 7th book and by now after fighting the Irish, the 
Danes, and other Norse all Thorgrim wants to do is go home to his farm but 
the Gods don't seem to want to let him leave Ireland. It's set the the 9th 
century when Dublin was a Viking settlement. It's particularly enjoyable 
since Nelson knows his way around a sailing vessel.
