Medusa's spell is another band that marks a step away from the cliche, from the anticipation and standard that has become a rule for the genre.
When some band breaks the "tradition" it becomes original.
That's the secret behind this band.
Yes neofolk is guitars, but they know how to surprise you with their compositions, they can knock you out with their morbid lyrics (and that way feckin off the rule of the themes associated with neofolk) about madness and obessession. Yes, they use some dark ambient influence but it is never predictable or boring.
Among all the mediocre or average bands that CMI has been releasing lately, this is some that can easily be called a difference, and for good!
Something to check for sure.
