Fellwarden was a concept forged by The Watcher (Fen, De Arma) back in 2014 to give voice to an epic, exultant form of black metal that nonetheless carries with it echoes of deep lamentation and remembrance. The Watcher’s goal was simple – to tell tales of sacrifice, of long-forgotten heroism and the rearing timelessness of the storm-forged landscape against a backdrop of windswept extreme metal. Fellwarden’s sound is steeped passionate vocals, subtle waves of keyboards, acoustic guitars, booming choirs and powerful riffs, underpinned by a cavernous percussive battery courtesy of Havenless (also of Fen).
Comes in a 6 panel digipak with matt varnish and metallic prints, with artwork from Adam Allain (Fen) and layout by IK (House of Inkantation).
"Wreathed in Mourncloud" is inspired by countless wanderings amongst the crags and fells of England’s Lake District, howls defiance, regret and remembrance to the bitter grey skies. The Watcher has spent the best part of three years painstakingly crafting the material that not only matches the power of its predecessor but takes every aspect of Fellwarden’s sound to the next level.
CD in deluxe gloss 8-panel digipak incl. album artwork, 12-page booklet with lyrics
