Neofolk recommends.

[Seditious]

after hearing about Sokyra Peruna in the General Discussion/Pagan Metal thread I heard this song and just LOVED it.
...there's no youtube link of the song, but if there was that would somehow be ok...while a clip linked from putfile isn't... lovely
the song "Road to Valhalla" by Sokyra Peruna

d'you guys know of anything else like it?

"Schmerzen" by Forseti is pretty close, but not slavic or anything.

I've got plenty of fuckin neofolk albums, but I haven't heard a lot that have this romantic duet vibe.

can anyone think of anything that might appeal?

Oh. I didn't really read what you said. Go alcohol. But still, check out any bands I said that you don't know.

I know them all, but Forseti is the only one who really does it for me.

Aye, sorry chief.

What a coincidence, I am just starting to look into this genre. Great thread.
Which Forseti do you recommend I get first?

 

[tagradh]

'Erde'

a horrendously overlooked band:

NAERVAER

they deserve to be overlooked.

this shit is like faggot Jack Johnson goes country

what I want is European folk, not Americanesque "country"

 

[unknown]

have you listened to Skiftninger?

 

[Skepticism]

What album to get of Werkraum?
I'll probably be in this thread a lot...
This is an alright site for folk bands Heathen Harvest: Folk Band Site
Also, what is some good neofolk with awesome violin?

 

[Seditious]

have you listened to Skiftninger?

I'd just checked out the song "Sug 99" off Skiftninger.

the other songs don't seem to be quite so bad (barely even a mouth organ to be heard... guess that one was a bad start)

 

[Seditious]

What album to get of Werkraum?

I have no favorite songs by Werkraum. I've heard two of their albums and the song "hoerne" off Kristalle is the only one I took note of,

Also, what is some good neofolk with awesome violin?

Neun Welten
Sonnentau

I classified them as 'folk/indie', along with other soft rock type stuff I didn't really like, Vetiver, While Angels Watch, Changes, and Ostara

try and get your hands on the song "Bob Dylan Is The Fucking King"



on a side note, Fejd is really good...more folk than neofolk, but still awesome

hmm, I have Fejd's Eld here somewhere, not sure if I either didn't like it or never got around to listening to it. I'll have to track it down.
