Silent Stream Of Godless Elegy Navaz

2011, Silent Stream Of Godless Elegy have been pioneering Folk Metal since their founding in 1995. They emerged from Hranice in Moravia, which makes up the eastern third of modern day Czech Republic, deep within the Slavonic heartlands. It is the Slavic feelings of ancient longing and melancholy that fuel the fires of passion on the band's sixth album NÁVAZ. NÁVAZ is a traditional amulet made from hair, blackberry leaves, ash and other odd ingredients. Tradition permeates the music of the Moravians by their use of violin, cello and dulcimer; it also shows in the vocals and choral parts. Many renowned guest-musicians add acoustic instrument like strings, flutes, dulcimer and grand choirs. Hanka Hajdová's female vocals and her male counterpart Pavel Hrncír raise Silent Stream Of Godless Elegy above the ordinary and make NÁVAZ a winner.
