Love it Ben!! !!! 
I thought the Art was yours at the beginning it reminded me of the style that I saw in your comic stuff...but seems to have another signature?...Anyway its a good drawing and goes well with your awesome sounding guitar!

Nice - that's good to hear !

Todd - you put the E in epicness I mean, thinking of the 13th warrior, makes a lot of sense
Ben - what inspired you to write 'The Longboat'?

Yes, the 13th Warrior is a great movie. Did you (and Todd) also see the more recent animated version of Beowulf ? I thought that was brilliant.
Well, there was a tv programme once about a group of modern sailors who built a replica of a Viking Ship and sailed it from Norway across to the Shetland Isles. Once there, they had to drag the ship across land. The whole vibe of it was incredible and it inspired me to come up with the main riff that you hear. I tried to find info about the programme once and found out that it was first broadcast in 1999. I don't think that's when I saw it, it must have been a bit later than that.. but it was an incredibly long time ago. I first tracked that riff onto my Fostex 4 track recorder !!
