For months you get no acoustics at all and suddenly you get two on a day. Happens. And it happens today, because I’ve got another one for ya. Månegarm is a Swedish Viking/folk metal band, active since 1995. Vaggvisa, which means Lullaby, is found on 2006′s The Forest Sessions EP. No idea what they’re singing, but it sounds great.

Kudos to Kebabhasse!

I’ve posted stuff by Inexist once and twice before. The Russian melodeath band came out with its fourth full length this year, which features a track with the unambiguous title Acoustic Medley pt. 4. The song’s idea is pretty good, but I have to say the keys sound way too Super Mario. Still, it’s worth a listen.

Thanks to Destroyer!

Let’s start off easy this morning. Though they normally play a heroic, speedy type power metal, Germany’s Blind Guardian also on occasionally writes acoustic songs that breathe the air of folky medieval times. The Bard’s Song – In the Forest is one of those, found on their 1992 release, titled Somewhere Far Beyond.

Thanks to Kebabhasse!

It’s been quite a while since we’ve had one of those acoustic metal beauties. Today it’s time again though. From the Greek band Horrified’s 2002 album Deus Diabolus Inversus: Argenteum Astrum.

Thanks to brutal fonias!

The Swedish band Dissection, formed in 1989, is no longer together. They split up twice. The first time because vocalist/guitarist Jon Nödtveidt had to serve time in prison for murder. The second time because he committed suicide in 2006. Thankfully, the band left the world a nice discography. This is a short but beautiful acoustic track, named Into Infinite Obscurity, which can be found on their 1993 album The Somberlain.

This one’s thanks to kebabhasse!

A beautiful acoustic to wake you up. Contrary to the material of All Shall Perish that I’ve posted before, the band is also capable of taking things slow and easy. Listen to this song, called Greyson.

The Finnish band Ensiferum makes loud folk/Viking metal, but they also occasionally take things a bit more relaxed. Ferrum Aeternum is an acoustic instrumental that is meant to air epicness fit for a movie. The song can be found on the band’s 2004 album Iron.

After a long hiatus, we have one for the acoustics category again. Kiuas is a Finnish power metal band. After the Storm is a nice acoustic track from their 2008 album The New Dark Age.

Another one for our Acoustics category. It’s from In Flames’ Black Ash Inheritance EP, released in 1997. Anyone with an acoustic guitar should attempt to play this. Though it sounds brilliant it’s not too difficult to play and so practicing this can be very rewarding. Listen to Acoustic Medley.

Thanks Wartecz!
