Folkémon is the tenth studio album of British folk metal band Skyclad .

This album notes a more progressive sound of the group, many interesting arrangements and fanciful lyrics ^[5] . The departure of the band ’s vocalist Martin Walkier after the release of the album didn’t lead to anything good, both for the band and for himself ^[5] . According to Martin, “ Folkemon is the most guitar and metal album in the band’s history. Music without snot. Real Skyclad and real metal! ” ^[6] ^[7] .
