The Spanish combo Sangre De Muerdago does exist for about a decade, and they became quite an important name within the European (Neo) Folk scene in mean time. Several of their former releases, like the mighty split with Novemthree, are sort of ‘popular’ by the (underground) scene, but one of their strengths for sure is the soberness and integrity, which makes their approach somewhat distinctive from the main part of the genre.
There was an artistic collaboration of German and Russian painters, shortly before the First World War, who were active as ‘Der Blaue Reiter’.
