Eluveitie

They aren't so bad. A tad too -core style though.

that's my thought exactly about being too 'core' sounding! its the main reason why i cant like it, although the music is pretty good.

I rave on and on about Moonsorrow, but they're truly my favourite in the folk style, though I might check out one or two of those names listed that I didnt recognise..
 
Eluveitie are an amazing band, one of my all-time favorite folk metal bands. I wish I could see 'em live, but I doubt they're coming over to the states anytime soon.

I agree with a couple of other people, though. The original vocalist on Vên (the demo) isn't really that great. But the new one, despite is dumb dreads, I think is excellent.

They are coming with Pagan Fest ;)
 
whats a Sunday got to do with anything? cant you just take the next day off?

no...
I have school...
I also have no car...
It would be nice to be able to call in sick, but alas I'm still in high school. Too bad - I would have really liked to see them. They do a crazy cover of Run To The Hills with full folk instrumentation.

Also...

Hurdy Gurdy = FUCKING BADASS
 
They're the first best I've seen with a hurdygurdy. They kick ass, and I can't wait for the new album.

Unfortunately, I can't make it to Paganfest in Worcester.
 
I'm on the final song of Slania right now, first time listening. It's kickass, maybe even better than Spirit.
