Folk metal?

[Txsxhx]

I recently started listening to Agalloch and Borknagar and fell in love.
Also, Tenhi was great.

I'm wondering what other bands play this kind of music and do it just as well?

Thanks

someone's gonna say korpiklaani but i just heard their new album and they refuse to try anything different so i think any one of their albums would be enough for anyone. kinda fun little jigs and such about drinking. super fast at times with fiddle. "voice of wilderness" is pretty cool.

-TYR
-CONORACH

 

[Hypnos]

Forefather from England are fine. try their latest album 'Steadfast'

 

[Cythraul]

Temnozor - Horizons
Temnozor - Folkstorm of the Azure Nights
Skyforger - Semigalls' Warchant
Arkona - Vo Slavu Velikim
Arkona - Ot Serdtsa K Nebu
Pagan Reign - Tverd

There's a lot more I'm forgetting. I'll post others later.

Not really folk but worthy listening to. Ours is the Kingdom si another album to try.

 

[Hypnos]

they call themselves anglo-saxon metal, which fits pretty well, imo

 

[rms]

sounds like black/viking metal since I have no fucking clue what anglo-saxon metal is.

Yeah, they play good party/drinking metal, I think; and they don't change very much. They have some rocking songs though.

@ OP
Try Moonsorrow. They're a blend of black folk and symphonic metal.

If you're looking for stuff in the same vein as Agalloch and Borknagar, try Ulver. They actually released one album that was all acoustic folk.

Can anyone recommend me some Folk metal with clean vocals?

Completely clean, or only partially clean?

Muzmaze suggested Tyr, which is all clean vocals.

Bands like Moonsorrow and Borknagar use a mix of harsh and clean.

Bathory of course!!

 

[mutantllama]

Preferably all clean.

*edit* Should I check out Elvenking or something like that? I heard their name before and I heard they were Power/folk metal.

 

[NinjaGeek]

Preferably all clean.

elvenking and mago de oz are both examples of bands that have all clean vocals. a few of their songs are interesting, but I find a lot of them boring, unless you're looking for a much lighter form of metal.

if you like your power metal with an emo/indie vocalist then yes listen to Elvenking.

 

[mutantllama]

I'm listening to Pagan Purity and I like it.
