about us
Triddana have come all the way from Argentina with a mix of powerfully played metal, Celtic melodies and a stunning visual presence driven by bagpipes, kilts and pure onstage energy. Their name - derived from the Irish word "troideanna" - means "fights" or "battles", and embodies the warrior spirit that made these men regular visitors of European stages and favorites of metalheads around the world.
Founded in 2011, their first years forged them a reputation in their homeland, owing to their sold out shows and solid, charismatic live performances. Their debut album "Ripe for Rebellion" (2012) already drew the attention from the scene world-wide, and by the time of their second release, "The Power & the Will" (2015), the way was paved for their first European gigs. The band performed in Germany and Spain, and the overwhelming response from the scene simply called them to keep returning year after year.
The following ventures into European lands came with a growing presence in open air festivals, acoustic shows and more concerts. In 2018, they embarked on another tour with their album "Rising from Within" under their arm, which was officially released with a performance at the celebrated Dong Open Air festival in Germany! The band kept alternating tours in Europe and gigs in Argentina, their unique style always resonating, and even enchanting much more than the die-hard fans of their genre. Their quality and constant music production earned them a feature in the "Heroes of Tomorrow" section of the Metal Hammer Magazine (Germany), who praised their ambition and foresaw their firm stride in the European scene.
The band complete their discography with “Twelve Acoustic Pieces” (2017), a collection of acoustic versions of their own songs featuring guests like “Norri” Drescher from the legendary Corvus Corax and renowned musicians from the Argentinian scene. In 2019, they also re-released “Ripe for Rebellion”, remixed, remastered and featuring the vocals of JJ Fornés, man in charge of singing duties from 2015 onwards. Furthermore, in late 2020, they released the official video for the song "Dare to Tame Me" (from "Rising from Within"), which was warmly received by fans and counts over 150k views on YouTube as of today.
In May of this year, Triddana released the single "The Ground of the Fallen" with a music video, and in July-August they will hit the European stages again after years! They will also bring along an EP with more songs from their upcoming album....Triddana are getting ready for a full-throttle return to activity!
Ripe for Rebellion (2019) Remastered
“This debut for the band is nothing short of spectacular. May the flames of twilight forever burn in their impassioned heathen hearts!”
Rising From Within (2018)
”If you have already listened to Triddana, this album is precisely what is expected of this Argentine band. A lot of power, a great voice, and catchy melodies adorned in a greatly way by Pablo Allen’s bagpipes.”
Twelve Acoustic Pieces (2017)
“Ein Akustikalbum aufzunehmen war eine tolle Idee der Jungs von TRIDDANA! Ihre Mucke ist perfekt geeignet für so ein Experiment!”
The Power & The Will (2015)
“Thank the gods then for Triddana, the Argentinian power folk group who seem determined to teach the world that you don’t have to come from a country whose main exports are snow and beards to make some thunderous folk metal.”
