I like folk, too! About bands you have written, I've only heard Mägo, but is a strange story: more or less three years ago, my sister was hearing Mägo, and I asked her for this band. She told me it was a metal band, and I was soooooooo surprised! I became a Mägo's fan, but, unluckily, I didn't hear anyone else metal band. Not since a friend of mine gave me for my last birthay two metal albums: Rhapsody and Blind Guardian. It was the moment: after than, I realize that I don't like metal: I LOVE IT! I searched for other metal bands, and now I know too about Nightwish, Luca Turilli, Avastasia, Haggard, Trail of Tears, Rata Blanca, Stratovarius... and THERION, my favourite band! It was at december 2003, so I think I've discovered a lot in a few time...

Thanks, Inma! (the friend who give me firsts metal albums)

Maybe I'm an OFF-topic. Excuse me!

Hey Manolo! good selection! I love all those bands!! (except I never heard Mago de oz).

I drove all round Iceland listening to Falkenbach! It was superb!

Finntroll are crazy guys, their oompah Troll-metal totally kills!!

As for Suidakra, Emprise to Avalon is a fave. B) (I prefer it to later stuff like Signs for the Fallen)

From days gone by, I used to like a bit of Skyclad. Prince of the Poverty Line is a good early folked-up metal album - clever lyrics too!

@Luthien: Keep on searching!! There are LOADS of bands for you to discover yet!!

For True Power Metal try 'A Flame To The Ground Beneath' by Lost Horizon. Great vox!! True Metal!!

Siruis13: Mago de oz is probably the only decently known metal band that sings in spanish. They are AWESOME! Check them out! And about suidakra, emprise to avalon is the only cd I have from them, and I fucking love it

I love metal with a touch of folklore in it. Mago de Oz is cool, good celtic influences. I love the flute on their songs.

Moonsorrow has to be one of my favorites. B) Have some music for anyone who wishes to just message me! Also have this other band: Ensiferium. Isengard is kind of interesting too although his recordings sux! <_<
But anyways hey Manolo! I think there are other bands that sing in spanish that ain´t that bad at all. I like Avalanch too (with the old lead singer, although this is not folk), Tierra Santa also has good songs, as well as Baron Rojo.

Peace!

Hi HellWraith!

What about "La Leyenda de la Mancha", IMO the best Mägo's album? I love Finisterra too... and about Gaia, I like it, but it doesn't makes me feel like previous albums make. Lyrics are awersome, I really like their meaning, but... it isn't more than other albums, musically speaking.

I think I'll check for some metal bands related in this topic and other ones!

I'm definitely gonna track this one down!

I will get hold of "La Leyenda de la Mancha", and if I don't like it then there is only you to blame!!

You have to like it!!!

If not...

(and think that the lyrics are more amazing than music itself, IMO...)

Sirius13 · « **Reply #14 on:** October 20, 2004, 08:52:07 pm »

Hehe! I just noticed your signature, Luth

Can I join please? The English Killer Society, surely I would be quite a catch as a member!?

P.S. You do mean the language as opposed to the people right?

Ei Sirius13!

Of course, I kill the language, not english people!

About joining my new society... I don't know, is quite hard deciding it. As an english guy, your english would be 1000 times better than mine! Besides the fact I have not decide creating the English Killer Society yet... Let's me think about!

Sirius13 · « **Reply #16 on:** October 21, 2004, 05:55:48 pm »

I know you want to kill me really.

I am in very dangerous company. I see how you threaten Tzar-O!

Sirius13 · « **Reply #17 on:** November 04, 2004, 07:11:47 pm »

Hey Manolo!

I've finally got my hands on 'Battle Metal' by Turisas!!

Judging by the stuff that you like (Suidakra, Finntroll, Moonsorrow) you will love this lot too! It's Finnish folk metal that is full of mad oompah energy and plenty of metal attitude. It's kind of a mix of all 3 bands named above, really! Mid-paced-black-folk-mad Metal

Highly recommended, check 'em out if you can.

Rat Cornu · « **Reply #18 on:** January 03, 2005, 03:05:00 pm »

I just know Finntroll but love them ! Not far from them I love Ensiferum too. Do you know them ? Their last album Iron rule !!! If you don't know go and listen to them, it's an order ! :angry:
