Eluveitie

[Watch Me Sink]

Here's a band that most here probably haven't heard of. From Switzerland, Eluveitie (pronounced El-vay-tee) is a folk metal band combining aspects of folk music and heavy metal. Definately worth a listen to fans of folk, rock or metal music, or those who enjoy musical complexity.

Here are some of their singles

Wow. Great band.

I don't really like they're metal. As I don't like that mans vocals... He reminds me of the singer of In Flames.... who I also don't like.

However.

They're folk is amazing.

Anagantios is one of my favorite songs by them. Do you like Slania's Song by any chance? While there is the guy's vocals in there (which I actually really like) Anna sings during most of it.

And did you get to check out their latest album? I think it's quite good.

Yea I do like the melody running through Slania's song.

Not listened to the new album, my mate gave it a pretty good rating though.

Do you like other folk metal bands?

I've listened to a fair share of Korpiklaani, and my brother is obsessed with Ensiferum, though I'm not a huge fan. I have some Equilibrium and Finntroll but don't think I've listened to it much.

Awesome. I might make a thread 😀 One of my favourite genres.

Who'd they support blackout?
