Wolfsword is a folk metal band from Hertfordshire England, Founded early in 2010 by guitarist and composer Ben Weightman. Their style of music consists of epic symphonic metal, incorporated with folk melodies and instrumentation including flute, violin, accordian, tin whistle. And atmospheric sounds blended with the music such as wind, rain, thunderclaps etc, thus creating a blanket of sound surrounding the harsh, powerful metal drumming, aggresive, soaring...... guitar riffs and bass lines. Along with subtle, epic and energetic synth and keyboard work. Resulting in a big, full of life, awesome and atmospheric heavy sound. The band are heavily influenced by Classical and folk music of all eras. And have a strong love for medieval, anglo saxon and viking music and history. Musically and lyrically Wolfsword are forever strongly influenced by mythology, fantasy, Tolkien etc, Historical battles, poetry and life.Source : http://de.myspace.com/wolfswordmetal
