I'm a very opinionated idiot, you're right.

Snowden, it honestly depends what kind of Irish folk music you're talking about. Some Irish folk music is very laid-back, relaxing and mellow. Here's an example from the Bothy Band:

bennyhillifier


The thing with Eluveitie is they're more of a "jig" band - the kind of music that wants you to drink beers and jump on a table dancing with hot irish broads. I'm more of a sucker for fiddle over acoustic guitar than jig shit, albeit jig stuff is very nice to drink to.

But Avalon Winds, I've hated Eluveitie since the Ven demo came out in 2003. I've seen them live now 3-4 times and I'm disappointed every time I see them and see people posing as real folk fans.

If you want to hear some good, solid instrumental folk music with MUCH MORE emotion than cheesy Eluveitie, check out the german band Neun Welten.
