celtic/folk metal fom brazil
Hailing from Brazil, Tuatha De Danann play music that is best described as Irish, and they do it rather well. They are similar to Mago De Oz but not quite so polished, which is a good thing really. They have their own unique style to bring to proceedings. Kicking of with a tuneful wail of pipes "The Dance of the Little Ones" sets the tone for the whole album, a rocking toe tapper. I defy anybody to sit still or refrain from singing along with the songs on offer. The next couple of songs continue in the same vein until midway through the next track "Tan Pinga Ra Tan" when things get a little bizarre with some weird chanting, before settling down again. Next up is "Finganfor" which deserves a mention as being the only song I've ever heard that made me laugh out loud when listening to it! In the middle there is the line "Let's go to the magic palace of Finganfor" sung in a crazy high pitched voice which is totally incongruous. Some of the lyrics are almost like children's nursery rhymes whilst others are very well done, it all adds to the overall fun feel of the album. Normality returns with the tale of "Vercingetorix", and the acoustic "Celtia" wouldn't be out of place on Led Zeppelin III. It's back to the nursery for the title track, which is very enjoyable nonetheless and another acoustic piece closes the album. Overall this is definitely a "feel good" album and fans of Celtic folk metal should definitely check it out.

Lyrics
The Wheel Coming with the whistle of the wind There's a leaf dancing in the air Floating, rounding, shining, Laughing it comes Changing colours And tearing in front of me Suddenly it turns into a wild being That sits on the ground - So quietly Looking at me... It rises... So the creature starts to tell me this: Sometimes when you think Everything's gone No lights, reason, love or hope Everything lost its sense You feel down and want to leave it all... Life is an old wheel You must learn it soon Wheel of transformation Everything goes And has its own purpose... Sometimes in, but sometimes out Never stand and still... New horizons, that's the mysterious wheel Cycles, roundings, time, birth, death Chances to try again That's a secret - Everything is turning WElcome to this play my friend Most call it life You have many ways to pick But try choose the right What's right? Sometimes in, but sometimes out Never stand and still... New horizons, that's the mysterious wheel Cycles, roundings, time, birth, death Chances to try again That's a secret - Everything is turning Night - is the sleep of the sun Death of out light king On the next day he rises again The wheel completes its whole process "What is alive must die What dies must be harvested What is harvested must be seeded The seeded must rebirth" Secrets of the Wheel... Sometimes in, but sometimes out Never stand and still... New horizons, that's the mysterious wheel Cycles, roundings, time, birth, death Chances to try again That's a secret - Everything is turning Sometimes in, but sometimes out Never stand and still... New horizons, that's the mysterious wheel Cycles, roundings, time, birth, death Chances to try again That's a secret - Everything is turning Sometimes in, but sometimes out Never stand and still... New horizons, that's the mysterious wheel Cycles, roundings, time, birth, death Chances to try again That's a secret - Everything is turning Sometimes in, but sometimes out Never stand and still... New horizons, that's the mysterious wheel Cycles, roundings, time, birth, death Chances to try again That's a secret - Everything is turning
