Artist Biography
An atmospheric black metal outfit with roots in New Mexico and New York, Vanum emerged in 2014 with a sound that combines elements of icy, Scandinavian-style black metal, muscular traditional metal, and majestic symphonic metal. The band issued their debut album, Realm of Sacrifice, in 2015. An EP, Burning Arrow, appeared two years later, followed in 2019 by the sharply focused and dynamic Ageless Fire, their first outing for Profound Lore Records. 2022 saw the release of Vanum's third full-length outing, the morose and melancholic Legend, which evoked the primal black metal stylings of bands like Bathory and Immortal.
