forefather

2015 marks the return of the mighty Forefather with their amazing album “Curse Of The Cwelled”. With their signature style, they have created a catalogue of 7 instantly recognizable albums that make them stand out from the crowd. Athelstan and Wulfstan (Forefather’s only 2 members since day one) have created a unique blend of multiple styles and merged them into their distinct songs and writing process. Wulfstan graciously answered some questions regarding the new album, the “Forefather” sound and some other items of note regarding all things Forefather……

First of all, congratulations on another incredible album with “Curse of The Cwelled”…have you gotten some other reviews in besides folk-metal.nl’s and if so how has the feedback been?
“Thanks! Yes, it’s still early days but we have had some other reviews too. Very positive response so far, which is encouraging. General comments from Forefather fans have also been very complimentary. I suppose that’s the most important thing.”

Posted on 2 December 2014 by Michel24 May 2021

Rating: 7/10 Release: November 2014 Label: Heidens Hart Records I always am a little skeptical of words like “re-issued” or “re-mastered” when an album that was released previously is put out again. Imagine now seeing another re-issue of an album that originally was released in 1999, re-issued in 2002 and … Continue reading →
