Trying to understand the layout of the world tree is something that always confused me, so this simplified picture is pretty helpful.


Yggdrasil ~ Vedergällning

Yggdrasil is the World Tree, holding up the 9 worlds of Norse Cosmology

Genre: Folk Metal

Lyrical Themes: Norse Mythology, Folklore, Nature

Country Of Origin: Sweden


Jesus suffered for 7 hours on the cross, Odin did it for 9 days.

Christians like to go on and on about how Jesus died for our sins. Blah, blah blah.

Sure, Jesus suffered on the cross for a mere 7 hours. Is that really that much of an accomplishment for the supposed son of God.  And the results of this action were to die for the sins of man.

Well, I still see plenty of sinful people in the world, so I guess his sacrifice wasn’t too effective.

Lets compare this to Odin who hung upside down from the Tree of Life for fucking 9 days!

9 Days of suffering in agony.

He did this so that humans would have the gift of writing and the magic of the runes.

So go cry to yo “virgin” mamma Jesus.

The Norse Gods will kick your ass any day of the week – which are incidently named after them.

Thursday, Thor’s Day – just sayin.
