But yeah, they do incorporate elements of folk metal. I would always see them more as a prog metal band though. Interestingly, they actually describe themselves as "Oriental Metal". Stick that in your bong and meditate upon it!

A.) A band's description of their sound is always dubious, as they like to think of themselves as "beyond" pigeonholing genres much of the time. And they still mentioned folk metal, so suck
that.
B.) Prog metal or folk metal, they're still folk metal.
C.) Oriental metal sounds like a variety of folk metal to me.
