About the artist

Aeternus

AETERNUS, the enigmatic musical genius from the mystical depths of Norway, is a true dark horse in the metal scene. With a sound that can only be described as otherworldly, AETERNUS combines elements of black metal, death metal, and folk music to create a sonic landscape that is both haunting and mesmerizing. Formed in 1993 by the enigmatic vocalist and guitarist Ares, AETERNUS has been a stalwart presence in the underground metal scene for over two decades. Their unique blend of relentless aggression and haunting melody has earned them a dedicated following of fans who eagerly devour each new release. AETERNUS's latest album, "Heathen", is a tour de force of epic proportions. From the thunderous opening track, "The Sword of Retribution", to the hauntingly beautiful ballad, "Fimbulwinter", each song on the album is a journey into the darkest recesses of the human soul. Ares's vocals are nothing short of demonic, shifting effortlessly from guttural growls to soaring cleans that send shivers down the spine. His guitar work is equally impressive, with riffs that are as punishing as they are melodic. But what truly sets AETERNUS apart from their peers is their commitment to storytelling. Each song on "Heathen" is a chapter in a larger narrative, weaving together themes of mythology, folklore, and ancient history to create a rich tapestry of sound that is as captivating as it is brutal. In a scene dominated by trends and gimmicks, AETERNUS stands out as a true original. With "Heathen", they have once again proven themselves to be masters of their craft, creating a work of art that is as timeless as it is groundbreaking.
