Fen

About Me


The sound of thousands of dead, ancient spirits that scream across landscapes of eternal bleakness. There is no life and no hope here...
"The strength of Fen lies in their song structures, all leading to a rain-drenched atmosphere. If ambient could sound like black metal, "Ancient Sorrow" would be the blueprint." - Vampire Magazine
