Human Fate is one of the heaviest I’ve listened to with regard to oriental folk metal bands, employing obliterating, pile-driving death metal grooves and formidable growls along with ominous atmospheres. Although their folk aspect draws heavily from West Asian influences — melodies and instruments, they also expand elsewhere by incorporating folk instruments like the accordion, didgeridoo (?), etc. as well as lyrical themes.
