I would love Balance Slays the Demon by Old Gods of Asgard, it is also in Alan Wake's American Nightmare. I've heard Marko knows Odin and Tor so maybe he could ask them if they are interested.

(For those who are not familiar with OGoA, they are PotF's alter-ego band.)

Hey guys, another week, another new batch of releases from Alt-Strum!

Up next is "Stairs on the Hill" by Roman Klun. For those who don't know, Klun is a grammy nominated, oscar winning, three time platinum music producer who's worked with the likes of Sarah McLachlan and Anthrax, to name a few. And he's even worked on several movies and video games (including a little known game called Starcraft). He's an impressive guy, with an impressive catalog, and his song "Stairs on the Hill", off his 2008 release Kingsway, is available today!

Awesome. Back Through Time is my favourite album of theirs, but I'm glad to have something that isn't from it though Keelhauled is a very sensible choice.
