Folk Metal

[Orcy]

Oh lawd...

Well try Ensiferum - sorry only folk metal band I know/like -try keying "Folk Metal" into google search and browsing.

Those two didn't make it as obvious as others; however, in Tanzwut they did use folky instruments. That doesn't make it folk though, it just has the hints of it. Moonspell only has a few hints.

Which means it's NOT folk metal. "A few hints" =/= folk metal band. srsly. I've listened to Tanzwut for a few years now, and there was no folk involved

And I haven't even yet argued against In Extremo being on the list.

If you want folk metal, try moonsorrow (they sing in finnish though) or Ensiferum (that's in english, but moonsorrow is tr00er folk metal ) and if you really like Ensiferum, you'll like Wintersun too, because it's the solo project of Ensiferum's first singer, same atmosphere but a lot faster paced. Finntroll, meh. I just have a thing with finnish bands that sing in swedish, that's fucking idiocracy pumped to the max. Turisas is just overdoing it, commercial shit. Not worth even downloading IMHO.
