Origin: England
Brothers Wulfstan and Athelstan formed Forefather in late 1997 as a project to create epic metal with themes of Anglo-Saxon history and lore. Recording in their home studio and releasing the albums on their own label, their early work can be described as black metal with folk and atmospheric elements. By the release of their third album, Engla Tocyme, the majority of the black metal tendencies had been dropped. This album is one of the best epic metal albums I've heard, and their recent sigining to Karmageddon Records may unlock the bands potential for producing a truly great metal album.
