Elvenking - Wyrd

Elvenking's second studio album "Wyrd" greets a new vocalist (Kleid) who replaced the old vocalist Damnagoras after he left the band (he would return for the third album, "The Winter Wake", replacing Kleid). "Wyrd" is quite like the previous album "Heathenreel" in that it is pretty much as folky as folk metal can get. I personally love the songs but I don't like Kleid's vocals too much. The album has some great tracks like "Moonchariot" and "A Fiery Stride" and is worth a try for anyone who likes folk metal. Buy it here! or alternatively Download
