Echo of Dalriada - A Walesi Bárdok
Download
Next release is rather a good tip than a rare underground pearl because the band uploaded it already on their homepage. However, I wanted to draw some attention to them because I think they're one off the best folk metal bands in general, but unfortunately almostcompletely unknown abroad: Echo of Dalriada. They changed their name some time ago into Dalriada and I think they're quite "popular" in their homecountry Hungary.
This is their first and only demo called A Walesi Bardok, named after some poems by the Hungarian poet Arany. The complete demo was rerecorded on their debut Fergeteg and even later on their release "Arany album".
The lyrics are completely in Hungarian which makess it a little bit "difficult" (I did not want to say impossible^^) to understand, but they transfer a great rustic beauty and an atmosphere that only could become like this with the Hungarian language.
The music itself is very, very melodic with lots of keyboards, melodic guitars and a change of male and female vocals. The female one are very great, I think she has a brilliant voice, but his vocals (clean ones and screaming) are also great.
I can only request you to try this out, this is very good!!
