Additional notes
Important! This is NOT a band from Lithuania only, this is international. Since Metal Archives does not have an "international" option for country, Lithuania is used.

Side-project featuring members from many folk metal bands and folk musicians from all over Europe and European colonies, with some contribution from American musicians. The line-up tends to vary greatly between albums.
