[@friezefrite]

Wow, i really must not had heard much from suidakra... This song is definitely amazing to me. I'll have to look into this album.

[@VerginixAbbyAirsoft]

That was an awesome song. I need this album now.

[@KarinaBarrios]

♥ Qué música más buena!!! ♥

[@OwenEvansMusic]

For those wondering why it sounds similar to Tarvos by Eluveitie, they are both based on the same Irish folk tune, Cooley's Reel. Although in this it's been turned into a sort of 6/8 version.

Endless their journey had seemed Slain, beaten, a defeat Exiled from the Scythian steppes they had been No retreat! With four Roman legions hot on their trail Betrayed, beaten, a defeat Two sisters bound for revenge To Alba in strong gales they set sail Young Aoife's lover wavered In a duel, fate would decide The Dacian prince challenged Two chariots would ride No match for the queen The prince soon lay dead This deed of his sister Aoife would never forget Mighty Scáthach Scythian queen Fierce Scáthach I fight for thee Oh listen to me now as i tell her tale Mighty Scáthach Scythian queen Fierce Scáthach I die for thee Oh hear us now as we sing her tale And in turn, i will teach The bravest of thee Who wants to join And once fight for me For Rome will one day Feel the scorn Of a Scythian queen Named Scáthach Now the Picts have been watching For the firs time they saw They decided to worship A true goddess in awe Come and live on this island The Picts now cried For we will ever defend On our land of shadows The Roman eagle Shall never descend! Endless their journey had seemed Slain, beaten, a defeat Exiled to the Scythian steppes they had been No retreat! With four Roman legions hot on their trail Betrayed, beaten, a defeat Two sisters bound for revenge To Alba they set sail Oh hear me now as i sing her tale Mighty Scáthach Scythian queen Fierce Scáthach I die for thee Listen to me now as i tell her tale Mighty Scáthach Scythian queen Fierce Scáthach We pray for thee Oh hear us now as we sing her tale And in turn, i will teach The bravest of thee Who wants to join And once fight for me For Rome will one day Feel the scorn Of a Scythian queen Named Scáthach.

Interesting that Picts trace their ancestry back to Scythians. Both are Y-haplo R (Indo European marker) people.

[@itacom2199]

@@backpressure123 why are you telling me this?

[@ReapersScythe79]

Bagpipes really are the coolest fucking instruments ever. Just got back from a Scottish festival, lol.

[@darkest1hourxx]

[@rafaelriveros7835]

I can't found this song in spotify :C

[@zeshtaar434]

[@BlessTheUndyingWorm]

Awesome band, every album is so epic.

[@NUNTIUS.7]

[@death858585]

[@metaleromayor]

salve el folk, viking, son muy buenos lo mejor, pendragons fall mi favorita

[@ImpressiveJerk]

No, they are from Monheim, Germany. I happen to live close to that place... If you don't believe me, check Google or Wikipedia :)

[@henriquenascimento8302]

thats one of my top songs of suidakra its fucking awesome

[@EraOneSamael]

sounds like another great album by a great band! dunno how they do it

[@SwT31]

That intro is just fucking epic!!!!

[@acdcmaniac1996]

BAGPIPES ARE METAL AS FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@perkai]

AKA GRAVE DIGGER, bro!

[@disafear3674]

Sick tune

[@evolooshion]

I think it's fair to say that folk metal has proven that just about any instrument sounds kick ass in metal. That's why my friends and I half-jokingly talk about how our drummer is going to play an oboe solo.

[@groundingmyself]

gotta love the dudlesack!

[@AvidEyeTr]

thanks ;) is that a super group :o)

[@yroslav]

@DutchDarknessWithin maybe i will too in time but its not the old music i fell inlove

[@ithelien100]

@antromorfo Suidakra is a melodic death metal band from Germany with Celtic folk influences

[@LeighKnauz]

All hail the Lady of Skye!

[@elColosodeRodas]

suidakra rules ! from méxico /../

[@karang92]

Does anyone else hear the same tune as in an eluveitie song? I think it's 'tarvos'. I assume it might be based on some old folk melody, similar to inis Mona (another song by. Eluveitie for those who don't know)

[@helixek]

@7IHd ofc, there's no compare between so different styles..

[@WorthDasGirth]

german band playing bagpipes

[@AlexMoby]

The singer is supposed to interpret Cuchulainn or a simple Pict warrior ? This song rules !

[@ArneZocktRetro]

@groundingmyself es heisst bagpipes auf englisch ^^

[@MetalMark9]

Ha, actually have you seen that dude on youtube that does necrophagist covers on the clarinet? it's worth checking out

[@TangoBrilliant]

@staja2107 He wasn't kicked; he left.

[@cmdh94]

german celtic band for the win XD

[@DutchDarknessWithin]

@yroslav It isn't the same tune indeed, but still I really like their new album.

[@Epithelable]

@ arnezocktretro

[@yroslav]

[@ImpressiveJerk]

just saying, Suidakra are from Germany.

[@groundingmyself]

ich weiss... ich bin amerikaner

[@Szatanista]

[@MultiCarlin23]

its a good song but i dont really like the screaming that much :P

[@murderaddiction]

You're basing that off of... what? Your latent homosexuality toward the band members of those two bands?
