NA CRUITHNE

Playing: Sunday, 13th August 2017

Stage: Hobgoblin New Blood Stage

Band Photo Gallery

Na Cruithne formed in 2011/2012. With Galway being one of the centres of the trad scene in Ireland and having a respectable and dedicated Metal scene, it is the perfect breeding ground for a Folk Metal band. Na Cruithne slowly crawled their way to their first gig at the end of 2013 and eventually gathered enough momentum to play in Metaldays 2016. February 17th was the release of their first album “Gairm an Fhiantais” (Call of the Wild) which was followed by the relese of the music video for Bultúr Marú, animated by Slovenian Graphic Designer Tia Friedel..

Na Cruithne has a style that incorporates elements of Groove and Black Metal with heavy influences from traditional Irish, Scottish and Breton music. The influences from the trad scene in Galway have made their way into Na Cruithne’s music, which is often introduced by the Irish Bouzouki or Fiddle, and driven home with the full Metal outfit, getting the sound right was a process of trial and error for the band and a unique headache for unlucky sound engineers. 

Lyrically the band tend to steer away from the Mythology and Fantasy staples of the Folk-Metal genre. The one theme that is prominent in most songs is of Nature and Animals. The Irish language features heavily in the lyrics with almost half of the songs as Gaeilge and the tracklist of the new album bears the names of different animals in Irish - “Mac Tíre” (Son of the Land/Wolf) “Bultúr Marú (Vulture of Death).

Na Cruithne are delighted to announce their first ever show in England will be Bloodstock 2017. The Hobgoblin Newblood stage can expect a torrent of Irish Folk Metal straight from the source. 

Lig do bríste ag an dorais!
