We have been dormant for quite some time as our personal lives and other projects have taken priority in recent years. Have no doubt that we will be back with a vengeance.
In the meantime, you can see what the majority of us have been up to on Sunday October 6th at qxtsnightclub in Newark NJ. Our other bands Replicant and Slaughtersun will be supporting Dysrhythmia along with Torrential Downpour and Eaten by Bees
We are saddened to hear the news of the beloved Saint Vitus Bar permanently closing its doors. Fortunately, the venue itself was only a building and the people running it and keeping the NYC area metal scene thriving will continue to be active. Thank you to the entire Saint Vitus staff and promoters for hosting Windfaerer and all of our other bands that have had the opportunity to perform on the legendary stage behind the unmarked black doors on Manhattan Avenue in Brooklyn.
Here is some footage of us performing at the Metal Punk Death Fest III in 2018.

A new season is here, the autumnal equinox is approaching. Seven years ago today, 'Tenebrosum' made landfall after an arduous journey through the outer darkness. “Heroic epics are about remembering; Tenebrosum is about oblivion, being forgotten and disappearing," writes DC Heavy Metal.
On 2015's 'Tenebrosum' we were tapping into our most melancholic and doom-laden influences. Yet, we viewed this album as an elaboration and continuation of our previous effort, 'Solar'.
According to @angrymetalguy "Tenebrosum fuses blackened extremity with folky subtlety into a very compelling package which I can thoroughly recommend to any fan of black metal."
Our cosmic violinist @benkarasviolin performed an electric violin playthrough of the opening track "Celestial Supremacy" available in full on our YouTube channel. "Gloria in silentium."

"Whispers of ages gone, exalted anew. Fading essence adrift in the wind, molting my intimate fears. To be rekindled with an ailing memory—a time where glory was sought through bravery."
It has been one year since the release of "Breaths of Elder Dawns"! What is your favorite song?

"Solar" turns 10 YEARS old this month! Originally self-released in 2012—and dedicated to the memory of a late friend—it was repressed in 2019 by Canadian label PRC Music. "Solar" was a sonic readjustment for the band and ventured deeper into emotional territories than our debut "Tribus". It set the tone for our future. We played a good chunk of shows on heels of this release. "A Glimpse of Light", "In the Shadow of Giants" and "The Morning Star" were staples in our set for quite a while (and remain in rotation today). Time marches on... Cheers to 10 years!
