Medieval Rock (Metal + Pipes)

Hi

Are there some interesting medieval rock bands outside the German-speaking area? Especially bands which combine metal with bagpipes?

Apart from the countless German bands (e.g. Tanzwut, In Extremo, Saltatio Mortis) I only know Saor Patrol (which is only instrumental though), Eluveitie and the Polish death folk metal band Slavland.

Do you know similar bands from different regions or is this kind of music not very popular at all outside Europe?

Greetings

Meticus

Bagpipes are popular everywhere! Some of my favorites are The Sidh, Alestorm (love that pirate metal), and Celtica.

Didn't know they also use bagpipes. Do you have an example song?
