Eluveitie - Carnutian Forest

[YesWeLikeMetal]

Lovely melody, added to my favourites

[xxPeggyXFamexx]

THUMPS UP FOR THAT A-W-E-S-O-M-E MUSIC!

[gutburner]

This band is great help for studying for finals, ty Eluveitie

[Locusani]

I can just imagine some wizened old druid turning up to the grove with his shiny Tama drumkit. At first the other druids laugh. And then they rock.

[claudichameleon]

@Locusani Yes! but these are German-Swiss & the "helveticans" were Helvolken, Germans of Norse/Viking descent...so it would be the gothi instead of druids, with Odin in his Old Wizard's disguise near by. *')

[RavioliTree]

When i was 6 my father practised reading with me, and guess what: all we read was Asterix. I also grew up with LOTR ;)

[Br1Quast]

@RavioliTree i'd say fuck yeah if i were in your shoes

[VikingGe]

i'd rather make my longsword glow and shine in the sunlight.

[orcslayer32]

@VikingGe how about blood and battle

[meditationpriestess]

enchanting....

[keltiicymru25]

i soak my longsword in my feces and urine always battle ready

[orcslayer32]

@keltiicymru25 quistion... what for, wouldent that be a disgrace to your weapon

[SuomalainenMies89]

My favorite one!;)

[JenCuYeh]

My favorite melody...

[RoJoproductions123]

This makes me think about zelda the windwaker ;o

[swaggy97]

a liitle like Isara ;)

[mhatkins]

I agree. Except a great back pice would be an OLD Oak tree with Mjolnir hammers hanging from the branches like keys, with Odin hanging, and Hugen and Munen's eyes piercing the darkness

[ALostClassic]

Cernuuuuuuunnnooooos!

Ah, Cernunnos, Lord of the Wood.

[bentlney]

the Into is fucking awesome!!!!

[LokiusMaximus]

@bentlney I agree. The intro is amazing. I like the cover artwork as well. Would make an interesting back piece.

[darktemptaitions]

HOLY SHIT I THINK I'VE FOUND MY NEW FAVORITE BAND.

[queziamaluca2009]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooow



[gothic090221]

Bless be! my Horned God

[Princyres93]

Wooooooooooooow *O*

[SheShattersTheRules]

this song reminds me of isara :D it's like a less melancholic more badass version of isara. love em both!

[floraFairy456]

SPEECHLESS....THIS IS "TOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOOOOD"

[colouredmirrorball]

Am I the only one recognising the song Maersk from Valravn at 1:39?

[shadowdemonlord]

The sweetest Joy?

[HikariLetras]

Definitivamente la mejor banda que he escuchado :3! Me gustaría que algún día lleguen a tocar aquí en Perú :D! Aprecio bastante el trabajo lírico y musical que tienen, es excelente.

[alex68716]

@HikariLetras ya somos 2 :D

[Sosenn]

Whoah, that's awesome :O

[bucephalus42]

@Yrold

Thank you for the recommendation

Also, adding my two cents to the "this song is awesome" crowd. Its always so difficult to find good music like this when just searching for pagan metal gets far too much screaming for my tastes, and for pagan or folk, not enough intensity

[goldmetalrock]

fuck yea



[Leodachef1]

I Love Folk !!! awesome music YEAH!!. I grown up with music like that so thumbs up !!. Cu Wacken ;-)

[Treeeboy]

@Feloman33 means a set of beliefs or faith you despise or fear. Frequently used wrongly, like the word fascist.

[Yrold]

if U like it ,

check "MEMOCRUSHER" here on youtube :)

!!!!!!

[hamycool]

This band is just what i was looking for, beautiful music peaceful in a way, just perfect

[BadCompany0000]

This band relaxes me and helps me concentrate on my work when I listen to them. No American bands make me feel the same. I bow and thank this band greatly.

[KonstantinKuehn]

i think im in love.. this band brings me to tears everytime

[Mariposaah]

cool

[MegaPoone]

Nothing connects us to the past like Music.

[YourTypeofPoison]

This song is very very close to Lothlorien's The Sweetest Joy..

I like their version better <3

To any curious, look up Lothlorien's song,

It's very much alike!

[sorrowsingsoftly]

I believe the man in the picture is Cerunnos, but I may be wrong.

[iBrianP]

This song makes me think of this girl I know, then again, everything does. and it bothers me, why does she have to ruin such good music for me

[CarnivorousExcrement]

@iBrianP I know how you mean man, when my first girlfriend broke up with me i saw and heard her name EVERYWHERE! i was like WTF!

[scuzzulus]

didn't know brictom was such a sick album

[scuzzulus]

holy fuck i just shit my self listening to this song

[yesodh]

Les yeux perdus dans la brume

Le soleil se lève, éternel

Mon coeur bat, immortel

[BleedingOphelia]

Beats me... The riff from about 1:38 is almost the same as the riff in the end of the track "Marsk" by the Danish band Valravn... Strange.

But it's DAMN good anyway! :D

[crashedbananas]

don't ask me why - I don't even know - but this song makes me think of a destroyed/burned celtic village , and a mother who got saved form the fire, walks back in the village , searching everywhere for her lost little son , and than the son runs back to his mother & than they're all happy together

[seanobi777]

@crashedbananas If you get images like that with a lot of songs, then you should be a director among music videos

[crashedbananas]

@seanobi777 haha , lol :)

[awstrali]

this band makes me proud to be a celt!

[SuperAgaciatko]

moje najukochansze :)

[ThatAbandonedRyan]

This song makes me emotional :'( lol

[phantomboss133]

Celtic music is so beautiful and relaxing. no matter what kind of Celtic music it is.

[bibi93dontgetinmyway]

*_* always positively amazed by this song!!!!!! love it!!!!

[Wolvve]

incredible.

[TheEichhornchen]

Actually, the beginning is copied from the "sweetest joy" by Lothlorien (written in 1999, covered by Beltaine). Pretty though!

[serenaleriatan]

It sounds like The Sweetrest Joy by Beltaine...

[RagnaDarkalus]

Muito bom!

[Arvo000]

[arazmataz1]

[Sirenensang]

Could it be this song sounds like "Twa Corbies", an old scottish folk song?

[NightIllidan]

My sentiments exactly

[appleton108]

I like it too.

[acerb45666555]

my buddy referred to a "Celtic Reconstructionist"! i like the new term!

[ambrosiustranquillus]

Celtic Reconstructionists hae been around at least 20 years.:)

[fiedelmina]

@ambrosiustranquillus

more like 100 years....

[NewDead00]

Dieser Song ist der Hammer

[crashoveride17]

[doucetragedie]

[XoxoTTe]

[Goldenka]

Isn't it "The Sweetest Joy" by Lothlorien in the first part?

[judith326]

it is , but not by lothlorien ...I mean I only know the Beltaine version

[Gitarrenliebhaber]

genial drums!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[DressxToxDepress]

this is absoultey gorgeous,gorgeous,gorgeous!

[gamerStormRage]

man eluveitie is the best of the whole world!!!!!!!!!!!

their new album is awsome they keep amaze me

[Gozdiklaani]

What does "Carnutian" mean?

[KelticFire]

It's related to a forest that was sacred to the Celts in Central France and where the Druids were said to meet, it is mentioned by Caesar in his Gallic Wars. The Carnutii were a tribe from the region.

[Gozdiklaani]

wow nice. Where d ' u learn that?

[KelticFire]

I study Classical Archaeology and I've always been interested in the Celtic world. Other that, the Carnutian Forest is mentioned quite a few times in Asterix!

[Nodrico]

Aha, thats where i recognize it from, i used to read Asterix all the time (:

[KelticFire]

In my free time, any book about Gaul and religion will tell you about it.

In University I've studied Greeks and Romans mostly.

[TheBambiniGiant]

@KelticFire Can you explain to me what this forest is or is about?

[ilCepu]

@KelticFire who is the man on the picture? (sorry for bad english)

[crashedbananas]

@ilCepu

It's Cernunnos , a celtic god

[DestroyerOfSense1338]

@KelticFire I'm very interested in history, especially the Gauls and Germanic tribes.

[kareenaissexy]

@KelticFire actually the celtic history is quite cool i guess....very few indians are intrested in european history...most of us feel that our indian culture is better than them but yeah celtic history is too beautiful to ignore

[FelipeHermod]

@KelticFire Asterix and Obelix = Gaulish celts. =D

The most famous celts ever. LOL

[sw0rd0fadvers1ty]

@KelticFire Man, Asterix was the best. I wonder how many kids who grew up reading Asterix turned into metalheads?

[SHISCO1]

@sw0rd0fadvers1ty Me!

[BittersweetConstrain]

@sw0rd0fadvers1ty I did (;

[dairisse]

@sw0rd0fadvers1ty well, for example me ;)

[MrVdx]

@sw0rd0fadvers1ty I know I did. !@#$ Yeah!!

[kozagong]

@sw0rd0fadvers1ty Me for sure :)

Asterix \m/

[DressxToxDepress]

wow,thats amazing!

[loonaloonyluvgood]

amazing...i mean ,really how do you know that?

[oluas85]

Ho the Druids, what a great people they ware in total conection with nature, and our mother Earth!

[MostaJQ]

Fucking awesome!

[Nightschism]

I can't wait for Evocation 2... and I don't even own 1 yet! This is simply so amazing; Eluveitie will continue to shock and amaze so long as they exist.

[dreadss64]

eluveitie is metal

[DarkAge91]

exactly pagan-folk metal!!!!!!!!1

[PhoenixPhire22]

No... they used to be folk metal... their first two album were very much metal. This last album however is certainly NOT. It's a light rock folk music. This is about as metal as my wooden floor.

[Etiainen]

THIS album is folk. They intend on getting back to folk metal

[ryangaston88]

I believe the "part 2" of this album will be much more metal

[501stlegionnaire]

it will be an accoustic one

[Luigi499]

Nope, part two will also be arcoustic

But first they will release another metal album :p

[AngryKhan]

i dunno when the tempo picks up at the end half of the song it ruins the atmosphere imo. The first half is one of the most immersive pieces in music.

[BlackFolkAndPiano]

ya... i don't like the drums parts...

[podlozka2007]

This is the best song of the new eluveitie album, even omnos is not so good, this is brutal!!!

[CodeNameSlipknot]

Correction: Mortician is brutal. This is just magical to hear :)

[TLEforever]

ich weiß net warum aber iwie erinnert mich dieses lied an die rabenballade von schelmisch^^ iwie passt der gesang von dem lied zu dieser melodie, auf einem baum 3 raben stolz oh weh oh weh... xD

hörts euch auch mal, bin iwie der meinung das könnte zusammenpassen xD

[Nightschism]

One day, my friend, I will comprehend what you just said, and we will be able to hold a conversation. Until then, have a free, random thumbs up.

[ChunkyPirate]

Metal or not, it's still amazing.

[acerb45666555]

excellent! and' like buddy says, not everything has to have power chords and growling!

[PauwehrHaus]

Not everything has to be metal for it to be badass!

This is beautiful music.

[oluas85]

true true true my friend!!!

[jeffoh92]

Does it matter?

Eluveitie can do no wrong at this point.

[Sebhelyesarcu]

What did you expect?It's just a simple acoustic album,not a real,"electric"one.

[roker1slv]

@Sebhelyesarcu Acoustic in my opinion is 150% better than plain computer generated music as it has character and live sound

[CarnivorousExcrement]

@Sebhelyesarcu it's acoustic, but i wouldn't really call it "simple". but yeah, it's so amazing. i love this album so much

[Raimkon59]

its realy sad that eluveitie dont play longer folkmetal... =´(

[KayJayDK]

Maybe they'll on Evocation II: Visions ??

[ThreeEvils398]

I think their next album will be metal :)

[desastermasterking]

the next 2 albums will be metal albums

war auch bissl enttäuscht, freu mich aber schon auf 2010...
