I agree ! Just as the previous person commenting said... Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant, and some. I love this tune, I recognise it. My favourite metal band and my favourite Border Morris play the same tune, how wonderful 😊
Modern take on the West Midlands version of the morris dance. The sticks being a late 17th century development linked to the the so called 'Bedlam morris'. The black 'Goth' look is very much 21st century - back in the day they wore coloured strips of ribbons or paper pinned to their jackets. Now known as 'Border Morris' a term invented in the 1960's.
Great stuff. Always a tricky line in anything pushing the boundary without losing the legacy.
I was at this performance, and many others of theirs at Teigmouth, for me they were one of the best of the day, Brilliant, Brilliant, Brilliant 👏👏👏👍😊
Brilliant, Kudos to the musicians and dancers, Thank you for sharing these wonderful videos

Iron Maiden - Hallowed Be Thy Name 😊
Stupendous!
Interesting music, slight touches of 'Hallowed be They Name' by Iron Maiden if I'm not mistaken..
Anyone care to explain this to a yank?
Watch their other videos. They're self explanatory. Failing that, check out their website.
