As someone who likes to listen to the original In Flames album I found that Eluvetie are what In Flames may of been if they went in this direction (since InFlames started with alot of folk influance). They even have a Gothenburg metal sound . This group is probably best described as Celtic/Pagan Folk MeloDeath Metal. There sound is solid, if you listen to the entire album straight like I did at the end your a little relieved it's over but all and all a damn fine mix of heavy and soul. A few songs are even heavy enough to make it into my normal rotation notably Bloodstained Ground and Primortial Breath . Slania's Song is very reminiciant of early InFlames . Their Drummer has some amazing work on this album. Unfortunatly the violin-bagpipe-whisle-hurdy gurdy mix gets kinda stale and repeditive sounding on the latter half of this album so I gave it a 3.5 instead of a 4.
