Midgardsblot has the actual graves. It stages Viking and atmospheric metal at Borre in Vestfold, on the largest concentration of monumental burial mounds in northern Europe, ground where real Iron Age chieftains were actually buried more than a thousand years ago. The setting is the entire point, and it is not a set dressing anyone could fake.</p>
