Irish Black Metal

Hmmm, this is ok, but not much more. Much like to my confusion of Gorgoroth and bands of the like, how does bad production better contribute to the delivery of the songs? At any rate, I feel most strongly that the best music to come out of Ireland is Primordial and the wonderful compositions by Patrick Cassidy.
 
Cruachan..........never really did it for me. Their music just seems a little too contrived and cheesy for my liking. The Pogues have some good moments, although I can't remember a specific one right now.
 
Geasa is awesome. "Angel's Cry" and "Fate's Lost Son" are both class releases.

Arcane Sun isn't black metal. THey are a melodic doom band with elements of death, black, prog, and classical music. In short, the band blows the shit out of 99% of other metal bands.

Scald is an avant-garde grind band. THey rule.
