Triddana - All Souls Night (Loreena McKennitt Cover)

Celtic metal cover version of Loreena McKennitt’s song!
Heavy metal and bagpipes take over in this passionate rendition of Loreena’s ode to ancient Pagan festivities.
The version forms part of the band’s re-release of “Ripe for Rebellion”. The cover was one of Triddana's first releases, as their folk metal started to become known to the world. It remained a part of their set list for years.
“Bonfires dot the rolling hillsides
Figures dance around and around
To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness
Moving to the pagan sound...”
All Souls Night - Ripe For Rebellion (Remixed, remastered, with re-recorded vocals)
Music and lyrics: Loreena McKennitt
Arrangement: Juan José Fornés.
Triddana are:
Juan José Fornés: Vocals, guitars, bouzouki and buzok
Pablo Allen: Scottish Bagpipes and Irish tin whistle
Diego Rodríguez: Bass
Joaquín Franco: Drums

Yall be killing that bagpipe and pan flute. I love the fusion with the driving instrumentals. Its transcendant 🥹🤯

[@UnseelieFaelass]

As someone who grew up with the original, and with metal in the house, I love this rendition! Well done!

[@Triddana]

Thanks a lot for your words!! =)

[@pierre-lucrousseau3652]

Yeaaah!!! I also grew up with my mother listening to the original...for some reason all soul night is still to this day my most favorite from Loreena. It is also the first song of her that i heard. The periode of tape deck! I agree with Unseelie Faelass. Well done Triddana! a another one that i will listen in repeat mode.

[@UnseelieFaelass]

Same here on All Soul's Night being the first song of hers I ever knew. But the song that overtime stole my heart, was The Old Ways. Which is actually on the same album as All Soul's Night.

[@EminencePhront]

I feel like half of Loreena's catalogue is perfect for metal covers. Well done. This is exactly what I'd hope for. Subscribed.

Bonfires dot the rolling hills Figures dance around and around To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness Moving to the pagan sound. Somewhere in a hidden memory Images float before my eyes Of fragrant nights of straw and of bonfires And dancing till the next sunrise. I can see lights in the distance Trembling in the dark cloak of night Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing A waltz on All Souls Night. Figures of cornstalks bend in the shadows Held up tall as the flames leap high The green knight holds the holly bush To mark where the old year pa*ses by. I can see the lights in the distance Trembling in the dark cloak of night Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing A waltz on All Souls Night. Bonfires dot the rolling hillsides Figures dance around and around To drums that pulse out echoes of darkness And moving to the pagan sound. Standing on the bridge that crosses The river that goes out to the sea The wind is full of a thousand voices They pa*s by the bridge and me. I can see the lights in the distance Trembling in the dark cloak of night Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing A waltz on All Souls Night. I can see the lights in the distance Trembling in the dark cloak of night Candles and lanterns are dancing, dancing A waltz on All Souls Night.

[@ladydeath3713]

I have to say, I actually prefer the original cover over this version. It sounded way more gritty and loud. This one is too uniform for my taste. I still like your other stuff though. Keep it up!

Hi Heather, thank you for your comments!
