Well there is Korpiklanni, probably the least metal of the folk metal bands, they were initially finnish folk music and later became folk metal I guess. Anyways they are one of my favorites.

Are you still into Scandinavian languages?


I like scandinavian languages, but I think the only hope I'd have of learning any is to actually go there and be exposed to it being spoken.

About maybe 2 summers ago I tried to make a major foray into Folk and Viking metal, I somehow ended up listening to Turisas so called genre of "Battle Metal". Good times. I do need to start another expedition at some point though into the genre though as I came out of it with basically nil.

Ach, now I have to listen to Battle Metal and The Varangian Way again.
