Saurom, previously named Saurom Lamderth, is a Spanish FolkMetal band formed in 1996. It is known for his trademark "juglar metal" style, a highly lyric mixture of Celtic music, {{Rock}}, romance and poetry with a big focus on fantasy literature and folklore. As you can see in its name, it used to draw a lot from Creator/JRRTolkien's ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'', although they have diversified in recent times.

Saurom, previously named Saurom Lamderth, is a Spanish FolkMetal band formed in 1996. It is known for his trademark "juglar metal" style, a highly lyric mixture of Celtic music, {{Rock}}, romance and poetry with a big focus on fantasy literature and folklore. As you can see in its name, it used to draw a lot from Creator/JRRTolkien's ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'', although they have diversified in recent times.

The band was born after the breakup of another band named RHF. Its first few years were spent in the regional circuit, recording demos in which it would be later the band's signature style. Out of the four original founders, only Antonio Ruiz and Narci remain, the other two departing just before the band's debut album, ''El guardián de las melodías perdidas'', which became their national breakup. However, its true establishing point came when health problems forced Narci to step down from the singer role and seek a replacement, Migue, whose heartbroken, resonant voice became the soul of Saurom onwards. From there, they have gone to release many other albums, expanding their reach to Latin America and solidifying further their place in the Spanish folk metal community.
