Æl-Fierlen are a band from England that plays a mixture of post black metal, blackgaze and folk music and this is a review of their self released 2025 album "All Is Far Away" which will be released in September.
A very heavy and atmospheric sound starts off the album while synths can also be heard at times. All of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them along with the clear singing also adding in touches of shoegaze and all of the tracks are also very long and epic in length.
When clean playing is utilized they also bring in elements of folk music while the solos and leads also add in more of a melodic post rock style. When the music speeds up a decent amount of blast beats and tremolo picking can also be heard which also gives the recording more of a raw feeling.
One song also adding in a brief use of whispered vocals along with a decent amount of melodies also being added into some of the guitar riffing and one song also adds in a small amount of death metal growls. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover nature themes.
In my opinion Æl-Fierlen are a very great sounding mixture of post black metal, blackgaze and folk music and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "To Sleep Eternal and "Eðe". 8 out of 10.
