New Fen LP, July 7th

2023-04-11 by Fernando Alves STAFF | 12 Comments
British black metallers Fen will be dropping their seventh full-length, titled Monuments to Absence, on July 7th via Prophecy Productions. The music video for the first single, 'Scouring Ignorance', can be seen below.



About the song, Frank "The Watcher" Allain says: "We originally wanted to pen a piece from a perspective of strength and self-actualization, addressing the idea of literally scouring ignorance from the world through determination and drive. We swiftly became aware of the futility of such a notion and instead, 'Scouring Ignorance' confronts ignorance itself as an almost tangible force – an infectious, quasi-elemental power that sweeps across our reality. Enlightenment, reason, empathy and rationality are scoured from thought by the corrosive nature of ignorance itself, willingly embraced by the hapless herds that infest this world. This is a more realistic way to address the manifestations of ignorance swirling around us, reflected in the feverish gaze of foaming-mouthed demagogues and lapped up by the multitudes of the witless. Accompanied by one of our most intense compositions to date and placing the piece as the opener of the album we feel is a defiant and determined statement."

Tracklist:
1. Scouring Ignorance
2. Monuments to Absence
3. Thrall
4. To Silence and Abyss we Reach
5. Truth is Futility
6. Eschaton's Gift
7. Wracked
8. All is Lost

WOOOOO

Hopefully this is as good as Carrion Skies or Winter. Somehow I completely missed their record from 2019…
