Dargaard
''Dargaard'' is an Austrian neoclassical dark wave band formed in 1997. Typically in dark and somber moods, the music of ''Dargaard'' presents medieval and folk-like melodies, often orchestrated through the use of various instrument patches from a keyboard. The band has four releases at this time. Band history ''Dargaard'' was founded by Alexander "Tharen" Opitz in 1997. Tharen had already played a prominent role in several underground bands by this time, including ''Abigor'' and ''Amestigon'', both black metal bands and '' Dominion III'', an industrial music act. Tharen was the keyboard player in ''Abigor'', but ''Amestigon'', ''Dominion III'' and ''Dargaard'' are entirely his projects.

Elisabeth was the vocalist in ''Dominion III'' and was also involved in the band ''Antichrisis''; she ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Folk Metal
Folk metal is a fusion genre of heavy metal music and traditional folk music that developed in Europe during the 1990s. It is characterised by the widespread use of folk instruments and, to a lesser extent, traditional singing styles (for example, Dutch Heidevolk, Danish Sylvatica and Spanish Stone of Erech). It also sometimes features soft instrumentation influenced by folk rock. The earliest folk metal bands were Skyclad from England and Cruachan from Ireland. Skyclad's debut album '' The Wayward Sons of Mother Earth'' was released in 1991 and would be considered a thrash metal album with some folk influences, unlike Cruachan’s early work which embraced the folk element as a defining part of their sound. It was not until 1994 and 1995 that other early contributors in the genre began to emerge from different regions of Europe and beyond. Among these early groups, the German band Subway to Sally spearheaded a different regional variation that over time became known as medie ...
