I still don't understand why some people think that metal is "dead" That's bullshit.

03:31 - Redn1ght
Haven't heard of any Vedic folk.. Try looking at youtube.

03:28 - Karlabos
Also do you guys know some good vedic folk metal bands. Preferably extreme vedic folk?

03:22 - Karlabos
Niburta has some throat singing too: [link] What is this anyway? Hungarian folk?

02:30 - Redn1ght
I just discovered those bands earlier yesterday... I need to find more bands to listen to.

02:28 - moonflash
Yeah once you get to the weird part of youtube the right side bar becomes an awesome portal of discovery lol. And the one you just posted sounds equally intruiging, kinda like kung-fu hustle meets In Extremo :P
