Cruachan celebrate their 25th anniversary in 2018 with a new album!!!

Folk metal progenitors, Cruachan, are set to release their latest album “Nine Years of Blood”. This album brings to a close their “Trilogy of Blood” which began with 2011’s “Blood on the Black Robe”. “Nine Years of Blood” is a concept album detailing the epic war fought between Ireland and England from 1593 to 1603. Ireland lost the war but came so very close to victory. All of this - the heroes and villains on both sides, the battles won and lost - will be told with the most epic soundtrack: Bombastic Orchestral sections, Blistering Black Metal passages, Thrash Metal, Heavy Metal and of course, lots of FOLK METAL!

The years since the release of their last album “Blood for the Blood God” have been very busy for Cruachan. Apart from a European tour they have also had prestigious appearances at some of the world’s top Metal Festivals such as 70000 Tons of Metal, Hellfest, Brutal Assault, Hard Rock Laager, Siege of Limerick, Ragnaroek as well as smaller shows Worldwide.
