About

Moonsorrow is a Finnish pagan metal band formed in Helsinki in 1995. The band incorporates black metal and folk metal into their sound. The band call their sound "epic heathen metal" and distance themselves from "Viking metal" and other folk metal bands, emphasising that their pagan and spiritual music is throught-provoking rather than happy or danceable. The band members' pagan beliefs vary, but they draw on paganism for inspiration.
