Everquest-themed folk metal

I been working on making a folk metal band that's EQ themed (gonna be a bitch to find members) but I recorded my first song the other day and thought I would share it.

The chorus is homage to song of storms from zelda, and I built the entire song around it's feeling but the rest is going to be originals and exclusively EQ. Faydark is the band name, Tears of Elder Spirits alludes to Karana and rain and the lyrics (haven't written them yet) are going to be based on Karana.

Thoughts/feedback??

one of your riffs sounds like the windmill song in Zelda OOT though.

If you want some shreddy guitar stuff I might be able to help you out if you want. I play lead and sing in my own power metal band, hopefully will be recording an EP to post online early next year.

I feel kinda nerdy saying this, but...
I dig it. Alot.
Nice job man.

Awesome! This is quite the coincidence, as yesterday I was actually just searching for rock/metal covers of Everquest songs.
