Celtic folk metal band Eluveitie is heading to Singapore for their first ever headlining show at The Ground Theatre, Scape on 24 May 2016!

I must admit when I read the press release describing them as “celtic folk metal” I was quite confused as to what it even meant; like their music is folk music and metal music fused into one song?

I had already got my first culture shock with fusion metal music via BABYMETAL back in 2013 so I thought how much more mind-boggling could it be right?

So I went to YouTube Eluveitie and DAMN!! I’m sold!! Just like how BABYMETAL worked as a “kawaii metal” band, Eluveitie works as a celtic folk metal band! I don’t particularly know how to explain how or why it works but it does. Give them a listen: 

It works right?

So go catch Eluveitie on 24 May 2016 at The Ground Theatre, Scape, 8.00 pm. This might be the only show in South East Asia, so don’t say I didn’t tell you.
