@Altaeris written by Tolkien who "borrowed" names left right and center from norse mythology
Just open the prose edda and you will find most of the names in LotR in the first "few" pages, some has one or two letter moved or changed but a blind man could see it
i like metal, i like death metal, i like some kinds of black metal, i really like the book of LotR, and i like when metal-bands (good ones) incorporate elements of tolkien into metal...but this song is almost word-for-word based on peter jackson's shitty two towers movie
@bookworm1138 Actually, in the liner notes of this album, Unleashed claim that when on the road, they play an old edition of the middle-earth dungeons & dragons-like, paper and pencil, RPG. This song was written about a gaming session they had trying to re-create The Battle of Helm's Deep. They also commented on how they didn't care for Peter Jackson's movies either. That's why it doesn't follow the books. In said gaming session, the good guys didn't win.
