Cruachan
Cruachan combine modern rock with traditional Irish music, but there is a lot more than just that; elaborate classic pieces, ancient medieval tunes etc.. They also use real instruments rather than relying solely on a keyboard or sampler. The use of these instruments also adds an element of curiosity in live shows due to each member's ability to play a variety of instruments. Some of the traditional instruments they use are; tin whistle, Irish flute, bódhran (an ancient hand held goatskin drum), uilleann pipes (or elbow pipes, like the traditional bag pipes, but instaed of blowing, a bellows is used to pump air into the bag), harp, bouzouki ( original greek guitar).
Satariel - Phobos and deimos
For this new album the band decided to use Daniel Bergstrand at Dug Out studio to get a more personal and better suited sound and production this time. So from April to May they recorded their upcoming release in Uppsala. It turned out amazing with a more mature and balanced direction of their far developed meledic Death metal.
Also, Satariel hooked up with Messiah Marcolin ( vocalist from ex. Candlemass & Memento mori) for the recording, which was quite a happening as all the members spent thier early years a big Candlemass fans.
