I'm looking for some Irish Black Metal with or without a slight pagan/traditionalist vibe. The rawer the better. I already listen to plenty of Primordial and am not really looking for bands that sound too similar to them. Thanks in advance. Happy St. Patrick's day!

I've been fairly thoroughly through the Irish metal scene, and there's actually quite a limited amount of bands.
However, here's all the black metal bands I know, that I enjoy:

Both folky:

Now, this band lives in Ireland currently, but is infact Polish, recommending it only because Popiół is one of the best pagan related things to be ever released. Thy Worshiper:

Can't go wrong with Waylander.

The Waylander song that was linked to begins with uillean pipes exclusively and then switches to primarily traditional black metal with some folky elements. Usually, they're folkier the whole way through the song. Probably my favorite Irish band (I'm pretty sure that they're from Northern Ireland, not the Republic of Ireland, if that has any affect on your level of interest).
