Cruachan is the co-founder of Folk Metal alongside with Skyclad, And since back in 1994 with Celtica, each new release is a masterpiece.
The Living and The Dead is no exception to the rule.
Once again, Cruachan renew themselves while keeping the same spirit and it's wonderful.
Finding the right mix between Irish traditionnal music and aggressive black metal is a hard task. Here they add some heavy metal and classical music to that blend and once again it's a perfect mix.
F*cking masterpiece.
