10.0 (5 个评分) Sangre De Muerdago / 槲寄生之血 类型: 民谣
发布日期 2018年4月20日 出版发行: Música Máxica
西班牙加利西亚新民谣团体Sangre De Muerdago的第四张全长专辑。

"When I heard that Sangre De Muerdago were coming to the Pacific Northwest I couldn’t believe i t. Their albums are some of the most listened to music in my collection, especially while traveling. For some reason their music walks hand in hand with the concept of the journey. Their latest album “Noite“ is a stunning piece of modern folklore that manages to hint at things ancient and timeless while being completely vital and necessary in our modern age. As a listener and fan of the band, I can’t recommend them enough."
- Steve Von Till / Neurosis / Neurot Recordings
SANGRE DE MUERDAGO is the creation of Pablo C. Ursusson. Acknowledged musician, composer, painter, sculptor, lyricist, free soul and traveller of the deep forests and the seven seas, together with different guests and collaborators that include outstanding and recognized musicians Georg Börner, Erik Heimansberg and Asia Kindred Moore as main collaborators at the moment.
“Noite” is the 4th album of Leipzig-based Galician folk-druids Sangre de Muerdago. A new step up in the history of emotional music; a birth of a musical journey full of light in the darkness, from the depths of troubled hearts, and proving this international ensemble capable to print their aknowledged exquisite live performance into a recording.
With their previous album “O Camiño das Mans Valeiras” (2015) getting excellent international critic acclaim and countless mentions on best-of-the-year lists in 2015, they‘re back with an album that crushes the borders of their Galician musical heritage. With twelve songs pouring playful melancholy, ancient spirit and romanticism, they push the levels of emotion beyond what was done in the realm of folk music until now.
The Hunt 豆瓣
8.0 (5 个评分) Ulvesang
发布日期 2018年3月16日 出版发行: Nordvis
加拿大新民谣乐队Ulvesang的第二张全长专辑。

The air hangs heavy in the air, exhaled by a huddle of men – alert and eager to set off. The long grass is stiff with frost and a murder of crows wait in a nearby tree. They understand. They too are ready for the hunt. The anticipation is unbearable as the invocation begins. Reverence and ceremony are key. There is no cutting corners and the rite only serves to heighten the senses and sharpen the mind. There is an ancient awe in the air and a feeling of connection to the past; to those who walked this same crisp ground before. Alex Boyd & Ana Dujakovic reflect on the poignancy of such a connection. The melancholy that sits in between the moments of excitement. The tinge of sorrow that follows a successful hunt. The sense of purpose has been and gone. The afterglow has given way to regret and unease. A beautiful creature has died that we may persevere. Is that the chants of our ancestors carried on the wind? Are they proud? Perhaps that is enough. Perhaps that is everything. To use the term neofolk here would be ironic as Ulvesang have reached back beyond the past and found not only a connection to those who came before, but also an unearthly primordial magic. Surely that is the very definition of true folk music.

Remember the wisdom out of the old days,
they know undying things
and nothing troubles the great streams
and gleams from the holy orchards,
where there is none
but fruit that is of precious stone,
or apples of the sun and moon.
they know undying things,
for this I have sailed the seas...
WE ARE ONE
ENA (one = unity in Greek) is our musical contribution to overcome duality, conflicts and separation trying to go towards a resonant, open-hearted attitude. What we seed in our life, in others’ lives, on the earth is what we receive. We are One, separation causes blindness and destruction. WE ARE ONE, WE ALL ARE CONNECTED. Vibration is the very first act of creation, Music has the duty and the right to work on connection being such a suitable and direct channel to express harmony.
If our life is meant to be a spiritual growing and not just a materialistic experience, all the domains where spirituality is expressed can become a source of enlightenment. Here is our naked soul alone in “her” voyage. To us, Music is diffusing a spiritual knowledge that’s not linked to a dominating specific religion but to the harmony of the cosmic forces. The aim is to reach again the primeval plenitude, calmness and inner light, being a part of the whole.
The magic word resounds before being pronounced. Knowledge and Experience happen at the same time and all of this is a sacred announcement, a message that doesn’t need rationality to be caught. It is a sort of spiritual call coming from the depths. Memory and singing are linked, they enable a deeper subtle “sight”.
The ancient wisdom was based on letting go, forgetting ourselves, our ego and masks in order to feel and live “the moment”.
A deeply felt thank for all what we have received from Greek philosophy, poetry and mysticism. Without this inspiration we wouldn’t be here to do what we do.
ENA !
The limited edition of ENA will include a 2 hours DVD collecting exclusive and rare live shootings taken from 1991 to 2014 all over the world.

Jaennerwein
发布日期 2008年10月22日 出版发行: Heimatfolk
Heimatfolk,是奥地利Steinklang Industries的民谣分支厂牌,到目前已经发行了5张新民谣唱片
JAENNERWEIN is a brilliant new Folkband from the breathtaking Salzburg countryside around the holy mount Untersberg, the myserious home of STURMPERCHT.
They play their very own style, a mix of oldschool Folkmusic and NeoFolk with some Martial rhythms, many Alpine-Folk and even some medieval elements. Jaennerwein use many traditional alpine
instruments, as harmonica, bells, marchial-drums, flutes, lyra and violins, but they also use a few electronics and they create a warm and heimish atmosphere in all their songs.
Although they come from the same region and have a similar musical background as STURMPERCHT, JAENNERWEIN are somehow quite different, because they are more serious with their ancient, sad lyrics about holy (often christian) rituals and mysteries from the central european Alps. But anyway - who likes Sturmpercht, MUST like JAENNERWEIN as well !

Sonne Hagal,作为新民谣迷们一定不会陌生吧?
他们可是德国新民谣的翘楚啊!
经过了长达三年的等待,终于等来了这张全新的大碟。
新碟中打破了一些新民谣固有的风格,加入了电子鼓等元素。
曲调还是延续了德国新民谣惯有的风格。
淡淡的曲调中充满了对事物的思考。

A Retrospective... 豆瓣
Empyrium 类型: 民谣
发布日期 2006年11月24日 出版发行: Prophecy Productions
Empyrium一直是我很喜欢的乐队,还买过两三张正版的。他们的风格颇为独特,从大类上说应该是金属,却又能将民谣、旋律融合得非常好,清风凄冷中散发出金属的血脉贲张。他们是森林中的游吟诗人,是北欧黑森林中的奇葩。可惜几年前乐队解散了。这次能重新看到他们发行东西,真是令人高兴。马上请小妞帮忙翻译一点资料。正如专辑名称“A Retrospective…”所说,就是一张重新回顾的作品。除了从4张过去的唱片中重新灌录的乐曲外,这张CD还包括了2首新作,“Der Weiher”和“Am Wolkenstieg”,还有一首重新编排录制的新作“The Franconian Woods In Winter’s Silence”。
这张CD设计精美,有金色浮雕似的数字书。许多粉丝对这本60页的小册子里对乐队的详细介绍特别感兴趣。这个传记对乐队的历史、有影响的音乐和内容作了比以往更细致的介绍,而且也介绍了EMPYRIUM的整个艺术角度和他在这些年的变化。因此,这会让人更加全面深入地了解Empyrium乐队。这次,同A Retrospective一起发行的是一盒6CD,包括了Empyrium的所有作品,有the demo,der wie ein Blitz vom Himmel fiel,和A Retrospective,设计成优雅而独特“数字书”,只发行500套。除了这个,还将用这样的形式重新发行他们以前所有的专辑,也将限量500套。
Weiland 豆瓣
9.2 (23 个评分) Empyrium 类型: 民谣
发布日期 2002年9月24日 出版发行: Prophecy Productions
Empyrium,融入Doom/Dark/Black/Folk/Classic等音乐元素的,把对生命的思考及对大自然的热爱,以低调唯美的方式表现得淋漓尽致。日暮苍山,浮光掠影,斜阳如钩,穿透生命的秘密,像梵高画笔下的向日葵绚烂而热烈。在主唱Markus低沉清晰的吟唱里,充斥黑暗的感觉,却无限美好,像玩魔法的孩子,而非邪恶的巫师。力量厚重背后的挽歌,凄楚但无比动人。
Empyrium在2002年发行了他们的最后一张专辑《Weiland》之后便宣告解散,这是他们的第四张Album,其实就是3个Ep的合集。
