back in the day what type of music would vikings be getting pumped up to fight with??

would it just be some guy banging a drum or would there be power (lute) chords or something too (surely not, no amplification), or anything similar to Mongolian throat singing?

i know they did drink a hallucinogenic mushroom drink to get themselves fired up before battle but yeah, I guess when you're tripped out, a constant drum and yak horn blowing and people psyching each other up - must have been scary as ****. it's amazing to me that people would march into battle with people playing music behind them

Oh, ****! It was Alice Cooper! Think I found the station in Oregon too. Don't tune into the radio often so don't think I have heard the loop. But I will remember that every time I'm looking for a station from now on dead srs. Don't want to derail the thread anymore but a shame you missed him.

Same type of beat and hip hop and rap music, which is modern day war drums.

That's why gangsters listen to rap music before they take out their opps.

I think singing together on the ship or in taverns was the form of music back then.

lol at thinking they wasted space on those tiny ships with musical instruments. At best they had a horn but that was for signaling not music
