Thanks for the link, Lindale, although it seems the writer misses a trick here:
"Even the controversial Varg [Vikernes] project Burzum used to be known as Uruk-hai after the menacing super-race of orcs."
Burzum is, of course, also an homage to Tolkien. This project is easily my favourite Tolkien-inspired metal.
I would also point out that the rather famous Amon Amarth are unrelated to Tolkien: they just liked the name.
I bought that Nightfall in Middle-earth album a few years ago and found it to be very tiresome. Nightwish I have no opinion of.
