Drawing more influence from TraditionalHeavyMetal, hard rock, and [[{{UsefulNotes/Punk}} folk punk]] than in MelodicDeathMetal and BlackMetal tends to mellow it out a bit, and it's more inclined to do acoustic-only FolkRock songs.

[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Folk metal is a combination of various folk music genres and various metal genres.]] One of the most diverse Metal categories, due to the diversity of both metal styles and FolkMusic influences. On the Metal side, the primary influence appears to be DeathMetal and BlackMetal, particularly for bands from Northern Europe (Scandinavia, Germany, and the UK); with the latter being most common in conjunction with strong pagan and/or anti-Christian themes. Substantial influences from PowerMetal, ProgressiveMetal, and [[DoomMetal Doom]]/GothicMetal are also increasingly common; as is [[PunkPunk Punk/Metal]] crossover. Folk influences are typically derived from music traditions local to the bands' places of origin or ethnic heritage; but a few incorporate multiple influences, with Irish and Celtic revival being among the most common. Use of keyboards to replicate the sound of traditional instruments, as well as more atmospheric musical effects, is common; but a few bands rely primarily or entirely on traditional instruments.
The first successful folk metal band was [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyclad_(band) Skyclad]].
