Hey guys. Being the uber-evil metalhead I am, I've been broadening my expanses onto different metal bands. Tolkien's Middle-Earth has spawned a good deal of Death Metal bands, particularly from Germany, Finland, and Sweden. I don't have an extensive list, but I do remember:
Amon Amarth Morgoth Utumno Uruk-Hai Gandalf Nazgul Morgul
And I know for a fact that there's more. I've listened to Amon Amarth, I suggest them to anyone who enjoys metal. I'm checking everyone else out tonight though. I specifically have interests in Morgoth and Utumno...
If anyone else finds other artists, please feel free to post them.
EDIT:
Found a "Morgul" too...Apparantly there was two bands named Utumno, one with five or six releases from Sweden, and the one I knew about with two releases from Norway. I can't find either of their music, must be extremely underground. Will require MUCH looking for...But I will find them! I swear upon it!! Found some Morgoth though...

I believe Tolkien's languages evolved from Norse, so that explains a lot. I don't know any *bands* named from his works, but I hope lyrics are acceptable.
Nightwish - Wishmaster
Master! Apprentice! Heartborne, 7th Seeker Warrior! Disciple! In me the Wishmaster
Elbereth Lorien
A dreamy-eyed child staring into night On a journey to storyteller's mind Whispers a wish speaks with the stars the words are silent in him Distant sigh from a lonely heart "I'll be with you soon, my Shalafi" Grey Havens my destiny
Master!...
Silvara Starbreeze
Sla-Mori the one known only by Him To august realms, the sorcery within If you hear the call of arcane lore, your world shall rest on Earth no more A maiden elf calling with her cunning song "Meet me at the Inn of Last Home" Heartborne will find the way!
Master!...
Wishmaster Crusade for Your will A child, dreamfinder The Apprentice becoming...
Master!...

Wow, I didn't know that there was that big of a following in music of Tolkien. That's actually pretty interesting ... I wonder what the wierdest name of a group would be ... maybe someone could start a chamber music group and call it the Seven Beacons of Gondor...lolz, I'm bored, can u tell?
