  • Genre Turning Point: They weren't the first Folk Metal band but they are generally credited with popularizing the genre in the 2000s.
  • Growing the Beard: Many fans feel that Nattfödd was when the band really started to reach their heights.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: The band's third album, the acoustic Visor Om Slutet has a rather bleak, almost apocalyptic theme and mood - which is fitting, considering the name means "Songs About The End". The album would be the last one to feature Katla as a vocalist due to a (non-fatal) throat tumor. And a couple of weeks before the album was out, Somnium fell/jumped to his death from the Pitkäsilta bridge in Helsinki. Some irony, huh...
