Loreena Mckennitt
Inkubus Sukkubus
and i don't think her music counts as pagan but you might like Heather Dale
if you like medieval babes try Celtic Woman
Permalink Reply by Micheál on April 10, 2012 at 3:35pm The leader singer of Godsmack, Sully Erna, is a Pagan Witch who trained under Laurie Cabot.(and did a ritual in their Voodoo music video) He used to be pretty open about it, until interviewers focused more on his personal life than the bands' music, so he stopped talking about it as he said, "I never wanted to be a poster-boy for witchcraft." They do however still use quite a few pentacles for stage props& designs. They're kind of a hard rock/industrial metal band(with a couple mellow tribal tunes)
Waylander, Celtachor, and Cruachan are all Irish pagan Heavy Metal combined with Trad bands from here that focus their music around the Gods&Myths. Don't know if any of those would be your genre, but it's a few at least.

Not too sure if they them self are pagan, but I listen too VersaEmerge,and In this Moment I find to be worth listening to as well. I myself have been searching for music that will help me on my pagan path. Music is for me an in lightening and magical start. When words fail music speaks! BB
Interesting topic :)
Having Loreena McKennitt at our theatre in Waterloo used to end up being like hosting a "Who's Who" of the southern Ontario pagan community ;)
Others either pagan, or with a pagan feel to them ...
Kate Bush has certainly done some stuff that seems to have pagan leanings - "Jig of Life". And "Lily" - although that one sounds more OTO or something along those lines. Micheál - ever heard it? Help me out here ;)
All About Eve - "Lady Moonlight"
Libana - "Sure as the Wind", "Full Moon Dance"
Pretenders - "Hymn to Her"
Micheál, well before your time, but Irish - Horslips 1976 Album, "The Book of Invasions"
Someone told me once that one of the members of Rammstein was Wiccan. Couldn't swear to it though. Anyone know?
Cheers!

Permalink Reply by Angelica Greenwitch on April 11, 2012 at 12:16am Oracle, Secret Garden, and (I don't know if she's a pagan or if her music is necessarily pagan, but it's in the New Age vein sometimes) Enya. I'm not much for explicitly religious music, but I can tolerate these groups. The Sword is a good band, but, again, I don't know if they're pagan exactly...but they do have a lot of northern European influence.
