Gwydion

Gwydion hails from the vibrant and culturally rich landscapes of Portugal, having carved a unique space in the metal scene with their blend of folk and Viking metal influences. Formed in 1995, the group takes its name from a figure in Welsh mythology, embodying a fusion of raw energy and mythological storytelling within their music. With lyrics often centered around historical and mythological themes, Gwydion has created a notable presence that resonates with fans of both metal and folklore.

The band's discography has grown steadily, showcasing a commitment to both thematic and musical development. Their most recent self-titled album "Gwydion," released alongside "Gwydion (The Instrumentals)," presents a bold encapsulation of their sound, replete with thunderous rhythms and epic melodies. Other works such as "Thirteen" and "Veteran" continue to build their narrative-driven approach, while albums like "Horn Triskelion" and "Ynys Mön" further explore the symbiosis of heavy metal instrumentation and traditional folk elements. Tracks like "Through the Gates" and "Battle of Alclud Ford" highlight Gwydion's ability to transport listeners to a different time and place, earning them a dedicated following and a respected place in the international metal community.
