Guds spelemän is Garmarna's second full-length album, released in 1996. All songs except "Njaalkeme" (which is in Southern Sami) are sung in Swedish.

Reception

[edit]

The reviewer for AllMusic wrote that Garmarna managed to keep a straight-faced approach at presenting the content of the songs, instead of in a way "that might even have disturbed the Brothers Grimm".
