Talk:Folk metal

message: anyone knows about this bands, i know a band called Tenochtitlan from Russia (strange that they are from russia and not from Mexico, Colmbia etc..), that incorporates music from mesoamerica with flutes, tribal percussions and other traditional american instruments and they sings in aztec, nahuatl, mayan and other languages..., anyone knows more music with this style??? is really hard to find.. maybe in the future this could be merged with this article.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.231.95.211 (talk) 20:52, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: "Pirate Metal"

message: In this article Turisas is  listed as one of the bands "that supplement a folk instrument like the violin with keyboards". This is clearly false; Turisas indeed have keyboards, but also have a full time violin and accordian player. If you'd like a blatantly clear example of this, look here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT6PX-wnLQw
I will be removing them from the list of bands who use keyboards to suppliment folk instruments.--Jesse (talk) 10:13, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: "Supplement" means "to add to", not to replace. So to say that the keyboard in Turisas "supplements" the violin and accordion is entirely accurate.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.54.11.218 (talk) 14:30, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

message: LZ is not only one of the first metal bands, they also incorporated a lot of folk influences in their music.  Should Led Zeppelin be included in this genre?
Are they forerunners of it?Smiloid (talk) 07:47, 13 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: This article does suggest that the genre appeared fully formed with Skyclad. Certainly Thin Lizzy and Horslips merit a mention as part of the origins of folk metal, also Jethro Tull deserve a mention though Ian Anderson insists they are not a metal band there are plenty of their songs which blur the boundaries between folk and metal.

thread_title:   Prehispanic metal part2# 

message: After much consideration, I have decided to remove all mention of oriental metal from this article. I am the editor that re-wrote this very article into what it is today. There has not been many changes to the article since my complete overhaul. I realise now that there was never any sources, reliable or otherwise, that remotely linked oriental metal to folk metal. Only one oriental metal band has associated with folk metal, namely Orphaned Land, and from there, I erroneously extended that association to all oriental metal bands. I now realise I was wrong to do so and I am truly apologetic about that. I can only hope that all the clones of wikipedia across the web would update their copies now that I have belatedly rectified my mistake. Sorry, everyone. My bad. --Bardin (talk) 09:44, 10 January 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Removing oriental metal 

message: I own the three albums by Golgotha and leader Karl Foster never showed in interviews any interest or intention of being folk metal. The first four-song EP may have some weird instruments in the second song but also Thin Lizzy and Led Zeppelin merged such folk instruments as mandoline or buzuki with heavy metal before in songs like "Black Rose" or "The Battle Of Evermore". No proof exists that an early and obscure incarnation of Golgotha ever played those instruments live or made them part of their style. Arsenanuf (talk) 21:42, 26 June 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Golgotha was NOT a folk metal band

message: Bathory's album Blood Fire Death came out in 1988, two years before Skyclad was formed. I'd say they were the first pagan metal band ... but I'm not confident enough in that to change it. Is there any reason not to?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.182.184.2 (talk) 08:08, 19 March 2015 (UTC)
