5.0 out of 5 stars Bagpipe Funk at its Finest, 5 Oct 2002
By A Customer
Heard two tracks on the BBC, and was hooked. Peatbog Faeries produce a truly infectious, pumping sound of pipes and whistles and electric goodies, with a fine bass and percussion background to keep things moving. I prefer the faster-paced stuff on Faerie Stories over their earlier album, and indeed I think this cd is perhaps the best in the genre- Celtic-techno-funk or whatever it should be called! Rolling down one's windows in South Mississippi with booming roiling bagpipes is also a great thrill (surpisingly, this sort of music is rarely heard down here...)

5.0 out of 5 stars Techno-Folk at its best, 1 Aug 2001
By A Customer
Being very new to celtic folk music, (I didn't know that I liked it until last month), I saw the Faeries live at Cambridge Folk Festival and was blown away by them. Consequently I bought the CD. The opening two tracks are tracks that will have anyones feet tapping. The rest is of a slower tempo but is great chill-out music. By the way - my favourite bands are Kiss & Rush so this is not just for 'Folkies'

5.0 out of 5 stars Funky chill-out clubby folk music! Is that a contradiction?, 15 Dec 2001
By A Customer
Who would have thought that a band based on the Isle of Skye in Scotland would come up with such a funky, cool sound which would not sound out of place in a New York City club. This CD is smoooth, but Peatbog Faeries are even better live - the atmosphere at their gigs is da bomb!
