Slavogorje is a Croatian black metal band with a strong folk influence. Their music reminds me a lot of Kroda, although Slavogorje’s takes the folk / pagan element even further. Slavogorje’s albums are filled with sections of songs and even full tracks that use various different acoustic instruments, clean vocals and other unusual sounds. If you need any more evidence just check out the band member’s credits on the album - one member is responsible for “vocals, piano, keyboards, whistle, sopilka, troblja, jaw harp, pan flute, rattles, wood sticks, and bells”.

Slavogorje’s entire discography is available for free download from the Slavogorje Last.fm page. They have been fairly prolific recently, having released Priroda Opstanka in 2008, and both the full-length Zimsko Krzno and a split EP titled Post-Folk in 2009. Priroda Opstanka is probably their best and most polished release, although their other albums are worth checking out as well. Their tracks from the Post-Folk split are also interesting, because the band mostly ditches the metal and explores the folk elements of their sound.
