…En their medh ríki fara… (Old Norse, “…And in Glory Will They Go…”) is the debut studio album by the German Viking metal band Falkenbach.[1] The album was recorded between 18–21 December 1995 and mixed between 7-9 March 1996 at Blue House Studio. There are two CD versions of this album. The first came with a picture of Vratyas Vakyas in the booklet. Due to the album booklet’s poor quality, the booklet was changed for the second version. A microcassette version was limited to 250 copies.
