Wedard is a prominent figure within the black metal music scene, primarily operating as a one-man atmospheric black metal project hailing from Germany. The creative force behind Wedard is Sternenfrost (real name: Stefan S.), who founded the project in 2005. Wedard is known for crafting sorrowful and introspective soundscapes that dive deep into themes of nature, solitude, emotion, and existentialism. The project utilizes the traditional harshness of black metal and merges it with atmospheric and melancholic melodies, embodying the cold and solitary essence of winter, which frequently serves as a metaphor within Wedard's work.
Throughout its years of activity, Wedard has released a wealth of material which includes full-length albums, splits, and compilations that have earned a dedicated following within the underground metal community. Among the project's notable recent releases are "Eiskrieg I" (2016) and its successor "Eiskrieg II" (2020), which continue to express the icy thematic core of Wedard's music. "Valkyren Frost" (2019) presents a chilling and immersive journey that is deeply rooted in pagan and mythological imagery. In celebration of a decade of existence, "Ten Years of Wedard" (2016) encapsulates the evolution of Sternenfrost's sound over the years. The 2021 release, "Wo die Ewigkeit die Zeit berührt," sees Wedard delving even further into the intersection of the eternal and the ephemeral, maintaining the project's place as an evocative force within the black metal genre. With each release, Wedard continues to solidify its reputation as a purveyor of the atmospheric and the melancholic within the realm of black metal.
