This was a combination I didn’t expect. It’s not uncommon for, say, black metal musicians to integrate their music into pagan folk and make a good hybrid, but this is something different. Antiq combine soaring traditional Basque and Breton vocals with a proper metal backing, and somehow, by some strange miracle, it all comes together very well. As far as metal goes, this is really quite good.
Antiq – Ilbeltz / Hanternoz / Anceisural Eritance – D’Anjou en Vasconie
