Mag Mell is a recording project that I created in August 2006, originally under the name of Clontarf. The intent was to create a blend of metal that took the aesthetic of raw black metal and blended it with the mood and atmosphere that was prevalent in traditional Irish folk music. While the traditional influence in the blend does not strictly adhere to established Irish tradition, it does recall common stories and concepts that encompass what I find most fitting for the genre.
