CRUACHAN Signs With CANDLELIGHT RECORDS

December 15, 2010

Irish folk metal band CRUACHAN has inked a deal with Candlelight Records. The group's new album, "Blood On The Black Robe", will be released in early 2011.

An audio sample of the new CRUACHAN track "I Am Warrior" — taken from "Blood On The Black Robe" — is available for streaming using the Soundcloud player below.

CRUACHAN's fifth album, "The Morrigan's Call", was released in November 2006 via AFM Records. The follow-up to 2004's "Pagan" was recorded at Sun Studios in Dublin.

Vocalist Karen Gilligan left CRUACHAN in late 2008. The remaining members of the band decided not to replace her and returned to their roots by creating extreme folk metal music. They recorded a new three-song demo which was only sent to a select few people.
