Scene News: Eluveitie Announce May 2019 Australian Tour

Extraordinary 2 Hour show from the kings and queens of Pagan Folk Metal Mythology, pagan belief and spirituality combine with brutally melodic metal to provide a concert experience like no other.

ELUVEITIE have long found their very own trademark sound, a sonic adventure based in Celtic visions of a Gaulish past, and the band are excited to be bringing their brand new line-up, darkly atmospheric new album Ategnatos and classic works from their entire 17 year history to Australian fans.

The nine members of ELUVEITIE fill the stage with charisma, while their exquisitely archaic folk metal fills the room – monumental drums, and crushingly heavy guitars combine with hurdy gurdy, celtic harp, whistles, fiddle, mandola, bodhran and bagpipes to deliver a metal experience like no other.

This May, Australia will witness the most epic performances this Swiss metal nobility has ever presented. Both mystical and powerful, theirs is a show that needs to be beheld – an elemental force unleashed upon the following. A breathtaking experience never to be forgotten.

“There’s always suffering before bliss. And always darkness before light.” Chrigel Glanzmann
