Forlorn - Aether (2025)
Forlorn's debut album, Aether, released on March 28, 2025, is a compelling fusion of metalcore brutality, progressive metal intricacy, and eerie folk horror elements. The album conceptually revolves around the four classical elements—earth, air, fire, and water—each represented through tracks like "Spirit," "The Wailing," "Funeral Pyre," and "Keeper of the Well," respectively. Vocalist Megan Jenkins delivers a dynamic performance, seamlessly transitioning from haunting cleans to ferocious growls, embodying both ethereal and demonic personas. Critics have praised Aether for its innovative blend of genres, atmospheric depth, and cohesive storytelling, marking Forlorn as a promising force in the UK's metal scene.
