Info:
Lord Weird Slough Feg play a unique brand of 80's-inspired choppy, chaotic metal, that is somewhat difficult to describe. Their Celtic and folk influences are the most unique of many diverse influences. The Slough Feg repertoire ranges from hyper-kinetic instrumental frenzies (Warpspasm, Blarney Stone) to over-the-top prog-rock opera (Down Among The Dead Men) to folk-metal reels (The Red Branch) to balls-out heavy punk rock 'n' roll (Highway Corsair, Why Not) and beyond...

The name:

The band's name, Slough Feg, or more formally, The Lord Weird Slough Feg, is derived from a character in ancient Irish mythology. Those myths, as recounted in the historical tome known as the Ta'in Bo Cuailgne (thawn bo quel'gny), provide the fodder for many of Mike's lyrical topics, although subjects such as mental evolution, moral mastery, and your basic misery and madness also tend to crop up, even when not related to mythology.
