Folkstone

Musical Group

Italian Lombard folk-metal band from Bergamo that blends electric guitars and drums with traditional instruments such as bagpipes, harp, flute and bombarda; reviewed on DeBaser for several studio albums.

DeBaser reviews reference members and voices such as Lore and Roberta/Roby and note the band's use of bagpipes, Celtic harp, flute and bombarda. Reviews discuss albums including Damnati ad Metalla, Il confine, Oltre...l'abisso and Ossidiana and mention touring activity in Italy and Europe (as cited in reviews).

DeBaser reviews present Folkstone as an Italian (Lombard) folk-metal band mixing heavy rock/metal with traditional instruments (bagpipes, harp, flute, bombarda). Albums discussed range from the praised Damnati ad Metalla to the experimental Ossidiana; Il confine receives mixed reactions. Reviews emphasize lively performances, strong choruses and varied experimentation.

For:Fans of folk metal, Celtic-influenced heavy rock/metal, and listeners of Italian-language metal.

 

In conclusion, ESTIQAATSI thinks, however, that the Folkstone group is the best group of all Longobard barbarian music groups.

Oltre …l’abisso is an album decidedly superior to the already successful Il Confine, and slightly inferior to Damnati ad Metalla, the band’s undisputed masterpiece.

Folkstone make such spontaneous music that many, including myself, fell in love at first listen.
