	Celtic metal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

	Battle metal (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Battle metal is a sub-genre of Black metal music drawing on themes of Middle Ages or fantasy battle and fighting, and in the opinion of some would be suitable for the soundtrack for a RPG fantasy game.
		Battle metal bands like Summoning were thought to be possible contributors to the soundtrack of the Lord of the Rings films, but this was mainly because of the Tolkien-related content of their music and they did not appear on the soundtrack.
		Most bands who play battle metal also contribute to other sub-genres of fl metal: for instance, Bathory are prominent in the Viking metal sub-genre, and Waylander (band) are pioneers of three sub-genres of fl metal: this one, folk metal and Celtic Metal.

	Romans in Britain - The Celts and Celtic life
		From the metals the Celts could forge and shape nearly anything, especially in bronze, of which tin is a major component They were able to manufacture almost anything from the finest swords, spears and chariots to intricate designs on jewelery worn by the aristocracy.
		Metal was not the only material they could make into artefacts., the British were also very adept at making items of clothing from materials made to a high standard.
		Heads were kept as trophies and the slaying of an opponent and the removal of the head by a youth was seen as automatic qualification of manhood and he would be accepted as a full member of his tribe.

		Celtic Frost had already combined operatic female vocals and death grunts in 1987 on their third album Into The Pandemonium.
		In general, Gothic metal lyrics focus on a variety of subjects: religion and God, heaven and hell, romance, (gothic) horror, depression, bereavement, emptiness, and death.

	Ancient Celtic Warfare
		Even though Celtic culture developed probably some centuries earlier, the oldest material I’ll be discussing dates to the beginning of the 5th century BC in central Europe.
		By the end of the 1st century BC, all the Celtic lands but the British Isles were conquered either by the Romans or had become germanised, either by a similar cultural exchange (like that when they became Celtic) or by force of arms.
		In battles, the Celts also made use of what has been dubbed "psychological warfare." Before actually engaging the enemy, they are said to having made a horrible noise by clashing their weapons against their shields, crying and singing, with horns (carnyx) being blown and maybe drums being beaten.

	Celtic Warriors
		Celtic Charioteers: "In both journeys and battles the Gauls use two-horse chariots which carry both the warrior and charioteer." [ Diodorus Suculus ] Since the Celts left few depictions of themselves, we are fortunate Roman coinage provides powerful images that generally confirms the written record.
		The war horn is of typical Celtic style, the bell being the head and open mouth of a fanciful animal.
		Looking closely at the battle dress, it appears to be chain or scale mail, rare among the Celts who, it is said invented chain mail, though the torque suggests these are Chieftain's arms.

	Celtic languages (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Celtic languages are the languages spoken by the ancient Celts and their modern descendants, the Gaels, the Welsh, and the Bretons.
		They were spoken across western Europe during the 1st millennium BC, but are now limited to a few enclaves in the British Isles and on the peninsula of Brittany in France.
		Note that the Breton is not Gaulish, but closely related to Cornish and is thus a member of Insular Celtic.

	Get Ready to ROCK! Interview with Agamoth of black extreme metal band Abgott
		In the beginning I had to face a lot of distrust from the metal people around, due to the fact that the band was based in Italy, because of the drastic change from death to fl, but I am a die hard mind and I did not care and most importantly, I did not surrender.
		Agamoth: Well, I grew up with heavy metal, my diet was based on Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Iron Maiden, this is one of the main reasons why the UK has always been my ‘idyllic’ place to live.
		Agamoth: Abgott plays Black Metal and the only adjective I can add to it is “unconventional”, just to highlight the fact that the listener are not going to hear the “typical extreme Black Metal” album.

	Graveland - Black Metal
		Their unification of simple fl metal themes with classical structural principles have enabled this band to hold ground with their long and wandering compositions, dreamlike in their simple melody and poetic recombination.
		Similarly vocals emulate the Bathory style in that era, as do patterns of cadence emerging in riff and muscular strumming that is strangely precise for a band this early in its growth, but the first four tracks on this release are unusually feral yet ambitiously majestic in their capture of atmosphere and mood.
		Vocals are shouted with the rough timbre of death or fl metal vocalization barely inflected in each pronunciation, and drumming is an outline of rock/punk high energy/low complexity styling.

	Celtic Tattoos (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Celtic culture is very ancient going back over 2,700 years, yet it is still a living force in the modern world, through art, music, writing, and spirituality.
		For people who have a Celtic heritage, whether they are Irish, Scots or Welsh, or of European decent, wearing a Celtic tattoo can be a way of expressing pride in their heritage, by reaffirming an affinity the indigenous artistic style of their ancestors.
		Celtic Tattoos are not an easy design for the artist to work with, therefore, It is strongly recommended to anyone contemplating getting one to view the existing work of the artist and enquire as to his or her specific experience in designing Celtic tattoos.

	Celtic History
		As the Celtic envoys, who are described as men of haughty bearing and great stature, their mission concluded, were drinking with the king, he asked them, it is said, what was the thing they, the Celts, most feared.
		The sense borne by the word in the sphere of civil right is traceable to a Celtic origin, and in that sense appears to have been a loan from Celtic.
		Yet this native Celtic civilisation, in many respects so attractive and so promising, had evidently some defect or disability which prevented the Celtic peoples from holding their own against either the ancient civilisation of the Graeco-Roman world, or against the rude young vigour of the Teutonic races.

	Encyclopaedia Metallum - Reviews for Turisas - Battle Metal
		The 3rd track, "Battle Metal", also starts in an amazing epic intro, and it's completely different from the one you heard from the 2nd song, it also starts out with some clean vocal/chant mixtures before it goes into the raspy vocals.
		"Battle Metal" is an amazing CD and any fan of Viking or Folk metal should DEFINATELY have this, the only thing(s) this CD is really missing would be a faster or melodic set of guitar riffs, although that varies on peoples tastes.
		Bombastic keyboard metal deserves more adherents than this, but at least the few that we have are doing a good job of keeping the style alive.

		This was a year with many great metal releases and of course some disappointments in terms of albums and moreso with two major blows to the metal world with the senseless murder of "Dimebag" Darrell Abbott and the untimely death of Bathory legend, Quorthon.
		Everyone who is into metal should be given the chance to hear this band, and a great place to start is with this album.
		This is power/heavy metal on the highest level and Edguy is easily one of the better bands in their genre.

		Metal is well is the States and this collection of rage, hard core-induced rhythmic blasts, furious guitar bliss and excellent acoustic moments gives a perfect example.
		Black Metal is also a genre where bands are constantly pushing the boundries of minimialist and epic song writing and the result is probably the most prolific style in regards to originality and varied bands.

		The songs are about ancient Celtic warriors heading into battle, the burials of kings and other themes from Celtic mythology.
		A common theme of heavy metal is the rejection of Christianity.

		One of the wilder hypotheses of how distilling came to Scotland and Ireland claims that it was brought to Celtic lands by the Vikings sometime between the 8th and 11th century.
		According to this theory whisky is derived from akvavit, but the 'proof' the theory is based on consists of no more than the observation that the traditional heartlands of whisky distilling, like the Scottish islands, were part of the Norse kingdom.
