Some Metal bands have "folk only" songs on their albums. You have to look out for them. Gillevisan and segervisa of Ma°negarm come to my mind. Great songs!

Honestly the idea of "Manly Scandinavian Music" is a modern invention, in fact and in real life the Vikings danced with their wives to the same soft folk music as anyone else. As for a cool Norse music to go off raiding to, this is not the opera.
just get enisferum music haha.
Hi all. After going through this thread I've decided to use the band Patrask for the Scandinavian battle music. They use authentic or very nearly authentic instruments. Their music is played in quite a boisterous way and they are all guys which fits with the generally all male environment of a battlefield. Their music could realistically have been played in a camp by a bunch of local musicians who may or may not be conscripted or otherwise volunteer to fight in a battle.
