The songs I add to my playlist meet the following requirements:

1. I love it
2. Folk instruments must be clearly audible throughout the majority of the metal song.
3. Harsh vocals only. I know it's controversial but it is MY playlist. The bands listed below that use a combination of harsh/clean, have songs that have either harsh only or are folk metal w/o vocals.
4. No AI. I'm starting to question Sagenbringer and Ryujin lately. I feel that if the band thinks that a generated image is OK for cover art, then generated Instruments are probably OK in their music too.

banger track, that finnish part is so good

What’s your favorite Ensiferum song? ⚔️🛡️⚔️ After knowing about the Victory Song’s 20th anniversary and the live collaboration with Jari Mäenpää🔥 we couldn’t help ourselves to make a short cover of Ensiferum‘s classic stuff 🤘

Any folk metal fans from London here?
ThunarWülf, Adfeilion, Call of Fenrir and Ravenyhmn and playing the Cart and Horses on January 30th, 2027.

Am I the only one who thinks that the scream at 2:44 in Trollhammaren resembles somehow the RAAH skeleton meme

Black Symphonic Folk Metal.

Those are handpicked so you could somewhat interpret that as top 32 ensiferum tracks.

fatherland kicked out round 1 is rough, but well, from afar's better

in my sword i trust got a rather weak group compared to the other 3, i don't think it should be a semi-finalist as much as i like it

lai lai hei dying that early is unfortunate, but andromeda is just too much of a banger

also definetely hate little dreamer and especially from afar losing round 1 to a better song

overall other than in my sword i trust all these other semi finalists are definetely great picks

Rocking my Finntroll shirt today 🤘 Love the design!

Those are handpicked so you could somewhat interpret that as top 32 dalriada tracks. Though some are missing that i would definetely pick (Like Verzo Ima and Uri Toborzo, maybe some others i don't quite remember). I'm honestly surprised there were very plenty tracks to choose from because given Dalriada popularity i certainly didn't have high expectations

A walesi bardok part 1 is the goat for me but dalriada has so many bangers

Can you tell which are the 3 of my favorite albums?

Also i definetely do not mind Aldas as finalist but 1st half had some damn bangers taken down by AWB part 1. Ideally i'd take Igeret as finalist but i'd also go with Hajdutanc above Aldas probably (not too sure about that one)

I know about Heilung and their language is indeed similar-sounding, but most of their songs have a completely different vibe which I didn't like.

Does anyone know anything similar in sound to Eihwar?

Thank you🧡

Little recognized, but a classic! A brand of folk metal more focused on social and political themes.

Masterpiece.

Spanish Folk Metal Band
