Well to adhere to viking Metal
You have to follow the stories writtin by the Edda's...
To adhere to folk metal, you'd have to follow the Norse Mythos.
Similar, but Norse Mythos mentions nothing of Vikings, Gods or Valhalla,
to retain the message of the warriors call still... Or Berserkerism.
O.o its a question without an answer.

Lyrics do not determine genres. The thing that separates Viking Metal is it's use of Scandinavian Folk music into the riffing.
It was just an opinon.
Scandinavian? No, It would be Norse. Vikings = Norse
The word viking is a term used for a Warrior in Exile.
Where as the Scandinavians or the Kvatz.
Weren't Norse but a branch of Austro/Ukraine.
Not a word to throw around lightly might I add.
But that is off topic and I stop now.
It is called viking metal because most/all of the bands sing about vikings. And Scandinavian as in folk music that originated from that area.
Exactly, so it has to do with a mixture of the vocal, and the lyrical aspects. The basis of story, will always be there.
