Æthenor is an international super group founded in 2005 by the “masters of the underground”, taking part in Sunn O))), Mothlite and Ulver. Very quickly, they gathered a strong catalogue of recordings and live performances, during which their music evolved constantly and changed form. David Tibet speaks point-blank about them: “they are spectacular”. They debuted in 2006, with a suggestively entitled album, “Deep in Ocean Sunk the Lamp of Light”. Their music can be described as an atmospheric, constantly shifting track, surrounded by a surprisingly wide range of ways of producing and processing sound. Sparing guitars, engulfed in a magical, almost oniric and ritual passages of jazz-like cocktail, create an electrifying result.
