DESMODIUM folk-metal band

DESMODIUM is an Israeli hard-folk band originating from Beer-Sheba.
The band's musical style combines hard-rock with medieval traditional songs in a variety of languages, including Gaelic, English, Old Swedish, Breton, Occitan, Savo Finnish, Latin and Old & Middle High German, blending the sound of the standard rock instruments with historical instruments (such as bagpipes, Irish whistle, Celtic harp).
In 2013, Eric and Miri Gershkovich launched a musical project based upon Carmina Burana, a medieval collection of poetry. Later, they were joined by Dmitry Natanel, Michael Volinskiy, Alex Vainer and Lev Etin, thus completing the lineup. The band was titled DESMODIUM after a "dancing" flowering plant, sometimes called tick-trefoil or tick clover.
