Eluveitie是那種真正可以給人“眼前一亮”的樂(lè)隊(duì)，他們?cè)诖植谠嫉腜agan Metal的坯體上用輕柔跳躍的Celtic Folk抹上了濃濃的一筆。 Eluveitie是正宗的赫爾維氐（即Helvatia，歐洲古國(guó)民稱，現(xiàn)瑞士，凱爾特民族的一個(gè)重要分支）民族的后裔，多達(dá)10人的團(tuán)隊(duì)編制足以體現(xiàn)出音樂(lè)的豐富性，除了風(fēng)笛（Bagpipe）、哨（Low & Tin Whistle)、愛爾蘭長(zhǎng)笛(Irish Flute)、小提琴（Fiddle）等凱爾特民族樂(lè)器之外，甚至有些樂(lè)器的名字從未耳聞。 Eluveitie組建于2002年，樂(lè)隊(duì)的名字翻譯成中文就是“我是赫爾維氐人”，一看便知是一支民族情結(jié)非常重的樂(lè)隊(duì)。 2007年發(fā)布過(guò)樂(lè)隊(duì)的首張專輯《Spirit》，首張專輯就讓他們大受歡迎好評(píng)如潮。Eluveitie現(xiàn)在的勢(shì)頭真是無(wú)比強(qiáng)勁，相信他們已經(jīng)成為了不少異教民謠金屬心中的最愛。2008年才剛剛開始樂(lè)隊(duì)就帶了他們最新專輯。封面上在巍峨的雪下之下，一個(gè)小孩拿著長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的圣劍，讓這張專輯充滿了濃烈的戰(zhàn)斗氣息。音樂(lè)自然不用多說(shuō)，依然保持了樂(lè)隊(duì)首張專輯中宏偉大氣旋律悠揚(yáng)的風(fēng)格。 手拿絞弦琴（手搖風(fēng)琴，Hurdy-Gurdy ）的女樂(lè)手Anna Murphy;手拿古提琴的女樂(lè)手和聲Meri Tadic;愛爾蘭六孔木笛,六孔小笛的男樂(lè)手Sevan Kirder;還有那個(gè)六孔小笛,愛爾蘭風(fēng)笛(尤利安笛),原聲吉他,寶思蘭鼓(Bodhrán)的男和聲,男樂(lè)手Chrigel Glanzmann. Swiss folk metal band Eluveitie incorporates folk instrumentation such as hurdy gurdy, flute, and pipes into an otherwise traditional death metal style, also adding a pagan element channeled through lyrics in the Gaulish language (a dead language in the Celtic family that predated Latin throughout Western Europe). The band is comprised of Chrigel Glanzmann (vocals), Ivo Henzi (guitar), Siméon Koch (guitar), Rafi Kirder (bass), Anna Murphy (hurdy gurdy), Meri Tadic (violin), Sevan Kirder (whistles, flute, gaita), and Merlin Sutter (drums). Formed in 2002 by vocalist Chrigel Glanzmann (formerly of the bands Môr Cylch and Dornwald), the band began as a one-off studio project resulting in the self-financed EP Vên in 2003. The EP was well received in the underground metal community, and so Glanzmann and company decided to carry the Eluveitie project forward, becoming a genuine band. In 2004 Eluveitie made their live performance debut and signed a recording contract with the Dutch label Fear Dark Records, which released an updated version of the Vên EP. In 2005 the band toured with fellow Fear Dark bands Slechtvalk, Random Eyes, and Pantokrator and made plans to release their debut album, recording it at the end of the year. Released in 2006 on Fear Dark Records, Spirit marks the band's full-length debut. In support of the album, Eluveitie toured Europe with the German band Odroerir, including a co-headlining performance at the 2006 Fear Dark festivals and also a performance at the 2007 Ragnarök Festival in Germany. In late 2007 Eluveitie signed a recording contract with the German label Nuclear Blast, one of the genre's premier musical outlets, and released their second full-length album, Slania, in 2008. The album became a Top 40 hit on the Swiss albums chart. 更多>>
