ALNE is a folk metal band from Poland. ALNE’s debut album was released in 2012 on Archaic Sound.
“The ancient Gods of the land ALNE comes from, feasts, folk demonology, customs, rites and chants collected by etnographers were an endless source of inspiration for our debut album.
The themes of the lyrics are connected with the spirituality of the land ALNE comes from, the spiritual traditions of Slavonic and old Prussian people. Apart from lyrics inspired by the native faith, ALNE also used poems by the early XX century writers – Maria Konopnicka (“Latawica”), Kazimierz Tetmajer (“Melodia Mgieł Nocnych”) and “La Belle Dame sans Merci” by John Keats. This particular mixture of romanticism, mysticism and paganism creates unique atmosphere which will not allow you to pass by indifferently.”
