Album of the Week #6: Legend - Fröm the Fjörds (1979) -- 40th Anniversary

The sun it rises from the east and begins to pound our heads

We ask the gods for guidance, for our lives may too soon end

The strongest men on all the earth are gathered here this day

The time has come to stroke the oars, first we bow our heads and pray

What this is:

This is a discussion thread to share thoughts, memories, or first impressions of albums which have lived through the decades. Maybe you first heard this when it came out or are just hearing it now. Even though this album may not be your cup of tea, rest assured there are some really diverse classics and underrated gems on the calendar. Use this time to reacquaint yourself with classic metal records or be for certain you really do not "get" whatever record is being discussed.

These picks will not overlap with the r/metal AOTWs.
