‘The Reaper’, the third single from Irish folk-metal pioneers Cruachan upcoming ninth album ‘The Living and the Dead’, is a wonderful blend of the band’s hardest metal riffs and hauntingly beautiful folk and traditional instruments.
Ireland’s Cruachan have enjoyed a storied career since they took those tentative first steps back in 1992. As frontman and sole original member Keith Fay elaborates; ‘When I started writing music as a 13-year-old, I had no idea that I was laying the foundations for what would become a brand-new genre, Folk Metal, or that I was planting the seeds of what would be one of the longest running Irish metal bands in history. There have been many ups and downs over the last thirty years, band members have come and gone, record deals have come and gone. We've played some of the biggest metal festivals on the planet, travelled to more countries than most Irish bands would ever dream possible. And it has all led to this - our ninth album, 'The Living and the Dead'.’
With the deal signed, talk obviously turned to new music. ‘The new album only existed in my head but he still pushed me to get a single out. We recorded The Hawthorn and the reaction was immense.’ Buoyed by the amazing reaction to the single, Fay recruited new members for Cruachan in ‘record time’. ‘Joe Farrell had already re-joined Cruachan on bass at the start of 2020, apart from being one of my oldest friends, he was also my rock during this time. Tom (Woodlock), one of the best metal drummers in Ireland, joined us early in 2020. I've known Dave Quinn for many years so was a relief that I didn't need to audition for guitarists, he came in and was a natural fit for the band. I did advertise for a folk instrumentalist and had a few interesting applications. Audrey sent me a mail with some links to her playing. My jaw literally dropped and I recruited her right away. She has been playing violin since the age of 4, the quality she brings to every aspect of Cruachan is beyond compare, from our folky stuff to our classical stuff, it has all just moved to a level I never thought possible.’

I just found you guys, a big fan of Eluveitie. I love celtic metal so much!
Bravo! 👏
Epic.
I have witnessed a man
Resplendent in his decay
A testament to the ages
His ghost trapped within
A father to his sons
Left in filth and ruin
The light of his soul is cast
And the reaper waits
How can he go, how can he leave?
When the cross is bearing down on he
Let him be, please let him be,
The dying man is he!
In a world of sinners
Who wears their shame?
No crown of thorns
Just broken shattered dreams
The tide has turned for all
Yet he soldiers on
A memory of a time and place
And the reaper waits
On bended knee he weeps
With arms raised high
An angel in his turmoil
The promise of eternity
A golden path is open
Fire ignites the sky
Yet he bides his time
And the reaper waits
cool
Holy shit, this is epic!!!

It was seven hundred and forty-five
The highland spirit had revived
Mac Dougall and Mac Donald there
The clans had come from everywhere, singing
Fee fi fo fum
I smell the blood of a Englishman
Fee fi fo fum
Come on London, here we come
We went all the way down south
We were frothening at the mouth
Coming down to Derby town
We'd beaten everyone around, singing
Fee fi fo fum
We ended at Culloden moor
Feeling bad and feeling poor
The redcoats had chased us there
There we died and there we stayed, singing
Fee fi fo fum, I smell the blood of a Scotsman
Fee fi fo fum, United Kingdom here we come
We the Bonnie prince has gone back home
He's never gonna come back
We'ldo to you at Wembley
We'll do it to you in pubs
With the Scottish louts larking about
Here come your rats, cruachan lad
🤘😈🖤🖤🖤👿🤘
Pagano y orgulloso
Cómo dios manda
🔥🪕🎙️🥁🎸
Celts and Nordics!.
Why is chat replay disabled?????????????????????
Это. Просто. Охуенно. ❤
My issue with this is that it's half song and half drama. As a Dark Ages drama it kinda works, but at the expense of the song being not really a song but a soundtrack. Enjoyable enough to watch. I'm assuming the Spotify version would be completely different. My Score: N/A not a coherent song.
it's a music video to promote the song and the album, you can hear the song on spotify and on the new album
The reaper is the most powerful entity, death. Which can only be overcome with a spiritual focus.
