Formed in 1993, WAYLANDER released their debut demo, Once Upon An Era, in early 1995. Mixing Irish folk music with extreme Metal, Waylander were soon dubbed Folk, Celtic and Pagan Metal. In 1996, with the addition of a full time tin-whistle player, Waylander released their 2nd demo, Dawning of a New Age, which soon gained Waylander a prominent position in the fledgling Folk Metal scene. This was cemented when Waylander signed to Century Media and in 1998, their debut album was released, entitled Reawakening Pride Once Lost. After overcoming some line-up changes, Waylander signed with Blackend Records and released their sophomore album, The Light, the Dark and the Endless Knot, in early 2001. Since then, Waylander have spent years bringing mosh pits to festivals across Europe such as Bloodstock, Pagan Nights and Ultimo Ratio. They have also spent this time finding and securing a powerful line up with a passion to match their musical talents. With their proudest album ready to hit the shelves, there seems to be nothing stopping them from dominating the ever growing folk metal scene.Quelle: http://www.sweetslyrics.com/bio-WAYLANDER.htmlDiscografie1994 - Once Upon An Era (Demo)

Das Vorgängeralbum „The Light, The Dark And The Endless Knot” der irischen Folk Metaller kam seinerzeit bei Kollege Memme nicht allzu dolle weg, wobei man der Band aber zugute halten muss,

“Pagan Metal for Warriors und Intellectuals” nennt’s das Info... Das hab ich nun davon: Bei CRUACHAN vermisse ich den Black-Metal-mäßigen Gesang.
