Pillaging Villagers

‘Pillaging Villagers’ (Crossover Thrash/Folk Metal)

Merging the punk -influenced aggressiveness of crossover thrash with the Celtic melodies of folk metal, the ‘peasant metal’ of Pillaging Villagers takes the listener on a journey to a medieval world of pitchfork-wielding rebellion where songs of victory and sorrow alike are belted out with tankards raised high. Whether described as ‘punk Ensiferum ’ or ‘thrash Dropkick Murphys ,’ Pillaging Villagers is a raucous, high-energy debut that rampages into the town square from its opening bars, burning & looting without respite throughout its tight 39 min runtime. A concept album composed entirely by vocalist David Frazer (pictured below), Pillaging Villagers features the session contributions of drummer Jason Hirt ( Ghost Bath ), guitarist Brian Koenig ( Lords of the Trident ) & bassist Adam Tucker ( A Scanner Darkly )!
