The German folk metal group Ignis Fatuu has recently put out two albums. 2014 saw the publication of "Unendlich viele Wege," their most recent album. On this album, traditional folk instruments like bagpipes and hurdy-gurdy are mixed with hard-rocking guitar riffs and thudding percussion. Each track on the CD takes the listener on a different excursion as it travels through various sonic environments.

The song "Sturm" from "Unendlich viele Wege" is a standout. It opens with a melancholy bagpipe tune before erupting into a powerful tempo and thunderous guitar riffs. The song "Lichterloh" is another favorite since it has a lovely duet of male and female voices in which both performers display their outstanding range.

Ignis Fatuu released "Neue Ufer" in 2011 before releasing "Unendlich viele Wege". This album combines folk and metal in a similar way, albeit with a slightly more conventional folk sound. Songs like "Spiel des Lebens" and "Wiederkehr" demonstrate the band's aptitude at crafting memorable melodies and hooks.
