Arkona to nie tylko nazwa świetnej polskiej kapeli black metalowej, ale też fajnej rosyjskiej kapeli folk metalowej. Powstała w 2002 roku jako Hiperboreja, ale szybko zmieniła nazwę na Аркона. Debiutancki album Возрождение pojawił się w marcu 2004 r. zyskał szerokie uznanie w świecie i jest jednym z najważniejszych nagranych w stylu słowiańskiego pagan metal. Rosjanom świetnie udaje się na swoich wydawnictwach ożenić metalową bezpośredniość ze słowiańskimi patentami. Od wydanego w 2005 roku albumu Во славу великим! grupa odeszła od syntezatorów na rzecz oryginalnego instrumentarium. Do dziś Аркона dorobiła się 7 albumów studyjnych, z których każdy prócz Лепта to kawał dobrej muzyki.
