Von den Elben is the seventh studio album by the German medieval folk band Faun.
After signing a contract with the Universal label and the Valicon production team, Faun for the first time released an album with lyrics completely in German language.
[2][3] The title track "Von den Elben" [Of the Elves] is a rework of a former Faun release from the album Licht.
[4] While Faun fans voiced their concern about the band joining a major commercial label, professional reviewers agreed that the album did not suffer from this step.
The MSN reviewer called Von den Elben a "balancing act between authenticity and mass market compatibility", but wrote also that it contained several valuable tracks.
