Eluveitie is a Swiss band founded in 2002 by Chrigel Glanzmann, blending extreme metal and Celtic folk. Their distinctive sound combines ancient instruments — bagpipes, hurdy-gurdy, flutes — with sharp death metal riffs and both growled and clean vocals.
Their breakthrough album Slania (2008) brought them worldwide recognition through epic compositions and a deep pagan atmosphere. With songs like “Inis Mona” and “A Rose for Epona,” Eluveitie forged a unique world rooted in Gaulish myths and melodic ferocity. Origins (2014), inspired by Celtic mythology, further established their status within the metal scene.
Similarly, Heilung and Ensiferum share that balance between ancestral melodies and modern intensity, bridging ancient mysticism and contemporary power.
