Wolvencrown is an atmospheric black metal band based in Nottingham, UK. Five years after their debut Of Bark And Ash, the English quintet is back with their sophomore studio album, Celestial Lands.
Wolvencrown’s take on black metal is based on long, keyboard-layered structures, with songs seldom clocking in at less than eight or nine minutes. The solemnity of keyboards, though, is balanced by the fury and rage of guitar riffs and fast drumming, making Celestial Lands a varied and diverse effort. Different from the atmospheric black metal you often hear coming from the Pacific Northwest, Wolvencrown melodies have deep roots in the European tradition, while their lyrics deal with nature, its spirits and the damage Man has caused. “A Spell Nature Cast”, the first single from the new record, is now available fro streaming both on YouTube and Bandcamp.
Celestial Lands marks the second collaboration between the English band and the Italian long-standing label Avantgarde Music, and will hit the shelves worldwide on November 29th on CD, LP and digital.
