FOLK METAL JACKET “Spill This Album”

FOLK METAL JACKET
“Spill This Album”
(Moonlight)
There is a danger in taking a band name that is very close to that from a well known movie in that people will from the first time they saw the name build up an expectation on what to expect. And with Full Metal Jacket the movie being about war people might assume that this will be some sort of Bolt Thrower-esque death metal trip. But then you will make the same mistake that I made reading the band’s name as FULL and not FOLK. With folk metal I often find myself digging it but not really getting the whole point of it. You can hear bands from all over the world and they pretty much sound like they all have drunk from the same well. It gets samey very quickly. But that aside I find FOLK METAL JACKET to be thoroughly enjoyable. Anders Ekdahl
