Abinchova - Hörensagen

Next band is not from Germany but from Switzlerand. I guess you may not know many (or any) bands from this little state but if you're into Pagan Metal you should have heard from Eluveitie with their unique sound combining Celtic tunes and heavy Melodeathmetal.
This band has just released one demo, in early 2011 there will be the first full-length album. The demo was limited to 200 Copies on CD-R and appeared in a sealed envelope. Very great! The music itself is also good. Pagan Metal with cool Death/Thrash influences, a violin and some female vocals. However, those folklorics parts appear just in a moderate way and this is why I like them that much. Lyrics deal - once again - with tales and stories but this time selfwritten and in a kind of funny but stil serious way. The intro is spoken in a Swiss dialect called "Schwytzerdütsch" and if you're not used to it, you won't understand a word! But I like it very much (maybe because I live very near to the Swiss border).
Download comes with complete scans of the "booklet" (might rather be called an inlay), the envelope and the CD.
