Ensiferum, Finntroll, Moonsorrow, and all other folk metal

[TheTechnogoat]

trollhammaren- finntroll- probably simultaneously the funniest craziest fist pumpingest greatest music video ever. its just like the scene in jabba the hutts lair in return of the jedi

@Silent Scream: jep

I love all these Bands, along with Turisas, Vintersorg, Thyrfing, Falkenbach & Moonsorrow. I also want to mention Bathory's Viking Albums here....

Out of the boredom of lame Bodom-copies, Folk & Viking Metal made my day...

 

[DragonKeeper]

all the bands mentioned so far kick ass
i also like menhir, graveland can be a little cheesy..but funny, lumsk, windir was good, heidevolk, etc. hehe moonsorrows vids are really funny...everyone agreeded it was the cheesiest no-budget vid ever hah.
(although i think einherjer was the cheesiest band)

 

[DragonKeeper]

They have already reserved the studio time for the summer. Dates are not exactly set yet tho.

ya marko told me the same thing when i asked if there were any posters left.

 

[EagleFlyFree]

>lumsk

YES
i saw some people asking for more bands with female vocals like Therion, so if you like Therion AND folk then definitively check out Lumsk - Troll



also:

Korpiklaani is pretty cool too.

holy shit yes, the new album Voice of Wilderness is amazing, a lot better and considerably less cheesy than the previous one. i still have some trouble coping with the singer's attempt at a gruff voice but all in all it's kick ass music.

heh, I first head them on Amazon.com. I was bored and searching for new bands. I just checked out what other people who liked Finntroll bought. I clicked on their sound clips and was like WHOA!

"Where is Primordial, the best fucking PAGAN metal band in the world?"
~Ville (Moonsorrow)

Pagan, yet not folk. I still love them more than any other band mentioned in this thread.

As for Korpiklaani, they got cheesy with their second album. The first one is pure killer!

 

[-Gavin-]

Pagan, yet not good.

i agree.

 

[TheSeldomlaid]

i had sex with Hitler and was stabbed with a screwdriver by an unidentified hispanic man in Spain. Please join Kabbalah and become a fat shady fucker like me.

You're Timo Tolkki in disguise, you sick fuck!

[TheSeldomlaid]

[-Gavin-]

And you ruined several gamma ray albums.

 

[TheSeldomlaid]

Hahaha, you totally killed this thread, just like you killed Stratovarius

 

[LedByTheReaper]

You gotta love the medieval Rhapsody songs.

 

[EagleFlyFree]

They're better when Kai sings
Ralf has the most annoying vocals ever. That's among the reasons why Primal Fear doesn't sound good.
