Cân Bardd

Swiss Atmospheric Folk Black Metal Band

Cân Bardd is a Swiss atmospheric black metal band with a strong emphasis on nature themes in their music. The project was founded in 2016 by Malo Civelli, who sought to blend the beauty of nature with the intensity of black metal. Cân Bardd's music often incorporates folk elements and ambient passages, creating expansive soundscapes that reflect the grandeur of natural landscapes. The band's name itself, which translates to "The Poet's Song" from Welsh, hints at the lyrical and melodic inspiration drawn from poetry and the natural world. While Cân Bardd started as a solo project, it has since expanded to include additional members for live performances. The band has been recognized for its contributions to the atmospheric black metal scene and continues to garner attention within the metal community for its evocative and immersive sound.
