This is folk metal. I can't say what makes it folk metal, but it's not heavy metal or power metal. I do love it though. Definitely became one of my favourite bands since I've seen them with Finntroll. Wish they would get bigger, they really deserve it.

Folk Metal with clothes and lyrics that would go with folk metal but the music isn't much folk metal, there are some folk parts in some songs, for example feast for the wanderer :D

Outrageous! Scandalous! Scientists have found that last.fm tags do not 100% reflect the truth about a band's genre.
