["Nought is given 'neath the sun

Nought is had that is not won"
- Swedish Hymn

Rime was written specifically as the instrumental ending to this album
Possibly, it is the most focused song A Hill to Die Upon has ever written
Rime is very concentrated on feeling and emotion rather than speed and aggression
Groove rather than speed
The complete lack of blasting and the use of more epic sections focusing on the guitar progressions, we feel, gives this song a greatness that sets it apart and is perfect to end the album
The title was given to follow a cold theme for this album -- in association with the Rime giants of Jutonheim in Horse mythology
Rime is our giant]
