Does anyone know any Irish metal bands?

And if anyone says the Dropkick Murphys or Flogging Molly, I'm going to laugh at you.

As much as I like them, they're not metal.

Update:

Why did ANYONE think U2 qualified?

    Yes, one of my favorite folk metal bands is from Ireland- Cruachan. Also Arcane Sun (doom/death metal), Geasa (Celtic black metal), and of course as previously mentioned- Primordial.

    Primordial are a very good Irish metal band. They combine some folky elements with metal and hard rock. They're very good, check out their Myspace page. They recently released an excellent album "To the Nameless Dead".

    At a stretch, some of Thin Lizzy's songs could be classed as Metal.
