Skyclad are a very consistent band, and as such this album is still very good, but it's one of my least favorite by them on account of not having any truly great songs on it.

First of all, the album "Folkemon" has a very good and nice cover. Well, at least I like it a lot. Another advantage of the album is, of course, high-quality and interesting music. "Folkemon" plays right down the middle of Skyclad's various styles and lets interesting fiddle ideas take over key themes, rather than depending so heavily on the rhythm guitar.

Picked up a former display copy real cheap. Not their best work, but still solid. The better tracks seem to be frontloaded, indicating either a difference in opinion on which tracks are good or a poor choice in spacing them out.
