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.
