Hi! I love songs like: Annihilator's "Crystal Ann" (Alice In Hell) Old Man's Child's "In quest of enigmatic dreams" (In defiance of existence) and Ulver's Kveldssanger album as a whole. Are there any other bands that play this kind of folk-ish guitar driven stuff? I also enjoy when a "regular" metal song has a classical guitar in it like at the end of "Crystal Mountain" by Death. If it's played aggressively it gives a nice atmosphere... Thanks EDIT: typos |

If you like Kveldssanger, check out October Falls acoustic albums -- pretty much exactly the same sound, though lacking vocals, which ultimately makes it a little bland after a while. The early Funeral (Nor) albums ("Tristesse" and "Tradegies") have lots of wonderful classical guitar interludes, brilliant stuff. |

You may also appreciate some Neo-Folk stuff, like :Of The Wand And The Moon: and (some) Sol Invictus. My girlfriend has just got into the former, so I've been hearing lots of them recently. Some lovely guitar work, again vaguely Kveldssanger-esque in places. And though it's only one brief track, the intro to Unleashed's "Where No Life Dwells" is a lovely classical guitar piece, well worth hearing. |

How about Flamenco infused metal, like Flametal and Marc Rizzo's solo stuff. |

How about Spanish style guitar stuff mixed with shred or metal? |

Yeah, if that works for the OP then definitely get Vinnie Moore's last 2 albums: The Maze & Defying Gravity. |

What about Crimson Towers, Into Infinite Obscurity and Feathers Fell from Dissection (Swe)'s The Somberlain? Maybe not that folky but they are really nice classical-based songs. On the more folkish side there is Visor om Slutet by Finntroll, possibly you can find something you like there. |

A few of the songs have a classical feel on Dark Tranquillity's Skydancer as well. |

I believe you should check out Estatic Fear's A Sombre Dance. Though on Sobnium Obnutum, they use a slight amount of this kind of guitar, A Sombre Dance uses it a lot more. |

Hellveto. Practically every album has classical acoustics incorporated into the majority of the songs. |

I'm not sure what's being described here is really classical guitar; more like acoustic that isn't blues. Why not just listen to Segovia and Bream? |

Eucharist's A Velvet Creation has a few song intros that are classical guitar type stuff. The whole album seems very influenced by classical music and theory. |
