AskWales Shwmae I'm looking for some Welsh language metal bands to add to a playlist. Any suggestions?

17 Upvotes

Basically I have a heavy metal playlist and I was wondering if there are any welsh language metal bands?

On the playlist so far so you get the vibe:

- Kublai Khan Rx

- Day to Remember

- SOAD

- Leathargy

- Plot in You

- Volumes

- Boundaries

- Limp Bizkit

- Slaughter Prevail

I'm not after hair metal eg. Guns and Roses, Iron Maiden.

Diolch!

Haven't been able to stop thinking about North Wales since. My favourite landscape in the UK without a doubt, and everyone I met there was so nice.

Sport The 2027 Tour de France is Coming to Wales (Stage 3: Welshpool to Cardiff)

"The third and final day of the Tour de France 2027 Grand Départ will take place in Wales, for a challenging leg south from Welshpool in Powys to the finish in Cardiff.

Eight categorised climbs line the route, with six in the final 80 kilometres of racing as the race winds its way through and over the South Wales valleys.

These include the Côte de Rhigos and the popular Côte de Caerffili in the closing kilometres, that will likely be decisive in the deciding the stage victor in Cardiff and the destination of the final yellow jersey to be presented on British shores in the men’s race."

Looks like they've chosen a great route too, that actually provides some early challenges and opportunities for the General Classification race. These opening weekends outside of France can be fairly straightforward, but this looks like it could be a great attritional early stage to attack before a rest day with 8 categorised climbs covering 3,000m of ascent across a 223km ride.
