Aetherian is an absolutely blistering example of quality melodic death metal. They are equal parts melancholic and ethereal while infusing keys and atmosphere into their shredding riffs and gurgling screams. Their latest track, "Primordial Woods" features the distinctive vocals of Sakis Tolis (Rotting Christ) and is a scathing reminder of what we will lose should we continue down the path we are on.
The band states of the song: "These past few years our planet is experiencing a rapid change of the global climate. The extent of fires in Australia, the Amazon rainforest and the Siberian boreal forest, shows us that the worst-case scenario is right on our doorstep. The destruction of wildlife’s natural habitat diminishes biodiversity and is disrupting the balance of every ecosystem. The damage we now cause might as well be irreversible. “Primordial Woods” is a song about our world’s forests. Preserving their magic and passing it over to the next generations is our duty. Let’s not make the same mistakes as those before us did."
Currently, the band is in the process of creating their second full-length album. Get more from Aetherian HERE.
