Fields of Yore, the haunting debut album from Brisbane’s Deciduous Forest, is now streaming in full via Decibel Magazine, ahead of the release date set for June 23 on Gutter Prince Cabal.
“Based in Brisbane, the strange, atmospheric artist channels emotion and reflection on this record.” Says Decibel Magazine
Crafted by Snjór, the multi-instrumentalist and composer behind the project, Fields of Yore is a deeply emotional journey through grief, insomnia, regret, and misanthropy, a sweeping blend of atmospheric black metal, neofolk, and orchestral ambient that weaves a grand and captivating tapestry of sound.
“Fields of Yore explores the dark corners of the human psyche,” says Snjór about the record. “Traversing themes of regret and misanthropy alongside conditions such as insomnia and grief, the album seeks to combine atmospheric black metal and neofolk with ambient orchestral scores in a way to blend light and shade without losing the extreme metal edge. The album serves as both outlet and reflection for Snjór as he seeks to express the darkest corners of human emotions. Through combining various instruments and musical expressions to paint a tapestry of sound.”
