Kanseil – ‘Cant del Corlo’ (2020)

Folk-metal.nl Posted on 9 February 2020 by Michel9 February 2020
Kanseil Cand Del Corlo

Rating: 6/10 Release: 7 February 2020 Label: Rockshots Records I’m going to get straight to the point and say that, other than the rather brilliant Verta, which brought to my mind French Celtic Folksters, Tornaod, the rest of this EP was a bit low energy for my tastes. I couldn’t … Continue reading →

Manntra – ‘Oyka!’

Folk-metal.nl Posted on 9 December 2019 by Michel12 December 2019

Rating: 8/10 Release: 26 July 2019Label: LC Music Listening to Oyka! there is no escaping the obvious fact that Manntra take their influences from the likes of Eluveitie, Morgenstern Alkonost and even System of a Down, but they meld them expertly together and then shine them through the figurative prism … Continue reading →

Borknagar true north

By: StuRating: 9.5/10Release: 27 September 2019Label: Century Media Records Where to start with a new Borknagar release? Let’s face it, the band have rarely put a foot wrong in their near 25-year career and are one of the finest examples of the Progressive Folk / Black Metal genre that you’ll … Continue reading →

Månegarm interview

What’s a better opportunity to talk with the guys of Månegarm then when they’re out in the open, wild and free at their own festival in Sweden? I managed to slip into their busy schedule for a nice chat.

Månegarm Open Air 2019

Folk-metal.nl Posted on 5 September 2019 by Michel6 September 2019
Manegarm open air

From the moment I woke up on Saturday 24th August, the omens were good for the inaugural Månegarm Open Air festival, held in the headliner’s hometown of Norrtälje in Sweden and with a lineup featuring a veritable who’s who of Swedish Folk Metal. The sun was shining on an unseasonably warm day and … Continue reading →

Lagerstein – ’25/7′ (2019)

Folk-metal.nl Posted on 14 August 2019 by Michel13 August 2019
Lagerstein 25/7

By: StuRating: 7.5/10Release: 23 August 2019Label: Kegstand Records Before we go any further, I’m going to address the kraken in the room – Aussies, Lagerstein are obviously influenced by Scottish Pirate Metaller heroes, Alestorm. Ok, now that’s out of the way, on with the review. While they are not likely … Continue reading →

Baradj – ‘Hunnar’ (2019)

Folk-metal.nl Posted on 13 August 2019 by Michel13 August 2019
Baradj Hunnar

By: StuRating: 9.5/10Release: 19 June 2019Label: Independent Baradj describe themselves as Post Folk Metal, which is about as accurate a description as I can think of for the unique sub-genre they have created. Whereas on earlier releases Baradj were more a straightforward progressive Folk / Metal band with prominent female … Continue reading →

Wormwood – ‘Nattarvet’ (2019)

Folk-metal.nl Posted on 3 August 2019 by Michel21 December 2019
Wormwood Nattarvet

Rating: 10/10 Release: 26 July 2019 Label: Black Lodge Records If you have heard Wormwood’s brilliant debut album, Ghostlands, and are expecting more of the same, Nattarvet is going to be a very pleasant surprise indeed. Whilst the band’s core sound hasn’t changed dramatically, it has noticeably evolved and the … Continue reading →

Munarheim – ‘Willens & Frei’ (2019)

Folk-metal.nl Posted on 12 June 2019 by Michel22 December 2019
Munarheim Willens & Frei

Rating: 7.5/10 Release: 3 May 2019 Label: Independent Willens & Frei is the third full-length album from German Symphonic Metallers, Munarheim. Yes, you read that right, because as far as I am concerned, like many other bands that find them classified as such, Munarheim are not Folk Metal at all, … Continue reading →

Kampfar ofidians manifest

By: StuRating: 9/10Release: 3 May 2019Label: Indie Recordings Now 25 years into their career, Norway’s Kampfar have often found themselves overlooked in favour of their more renowned peers, but when it comes to quality Pagan Black Metal, they really are head and shoulders above the pack. They are peerless in … Continue reading →
