Eluveitie

"Catoues caletoi

Urit namantas anrimius

Ro- te isarnilin -urextont,

Au glannabi rhenus

Ad ardus alpon,

Tou' magisa matua

Tou' brigas iuerilonas"

- Slania's Song

Eluveitie are a Swiss Folk Metal band. Eluveitie blends elements of Melodic Death Metal with celtic folk music, all with a pagan theme. As far as folk metal bands go, they are a fairly well known and well established act, having released 4 full length studio albums since 2006. One of them, Slania (2008) charted in Switzerland and Germany.

Eluveitie has examples of:

 * Celtic Mythology
 * Everythings Louder With Bagpipes
 * Gratuitous Foreign Language - The page quote is an example.
 * Heavy Mithril
 * Indecipherable Lyrics - Unless of course you speak the dead language Gaulish, which Eluveitie uses for some lyrics.
 * Neoclassical Punk Zydeco Rockabilly - as is the case with most folk metal bands.
 * New Sound Album - Evocation I: The Arcane Dominion was the band's first acoustic album, ditching the metal for almost pure folk music.
