Windir is absolutely great.

My Favourite folk metal-ish bands are:

Drudkh
Windir
Enslaved (below the lights and earlier)
Myrkgrav
Cor Scorpii

All are absolutely brilliant, and with the exception of Drudkh, all are Norwegian, who usually do make a lot of the best folkish-black metal. Moonsorrow is also absolutely brilliant.

Drudkh <3 Should be in everyones playlist. Finntroll are gewd...

I think my favs would have to be Windir, Falkenbach, Drudkh, AND Mithotyn.

Moonsorrow is on and off with me... Sometimes i am just in the mood for 23 min long songs.

Here is a TREAT!!!

Suidakra (with the exception of Command, that album was terrible), Cruachan, Waylander, and Adorned Brood are some of my personal favorites. They're all a bit less metal than your average folk metal but I think that actually helps their sound a lot.

I have never liked Folk Metal, but Eluveitie are really good. Also, if we count in Viking Metal as Folk, then of course Amon Amarth goes here :P
