In this episode of Heavy Metal Tones, we dive into the thunderous clash of tradition and distortion—Folk Metal. From its roots in the early '90s to the rise of genre-defining bands like Skyclad, Finntroll, and Eluveitie, we trace the evolution of this unique fusion of ancient melodies and heavy riffs. Discover how folklore, mythology, and regional instruments brought new life to the metal scene and meet the pioneers who gave folk metal its voice.
