Falls of Rauros

Falls of Rauros is an atmospheric black metal band hailing from Portland, Maine, with a penchant for infusing their sound with elements of folk and post-metal. The band took their name from J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings," where Falls of Rauros is a loud waterfall of the River Anduin. Since their inception, they have carved out a distinctive niche within the metal community, marrying the intensity of black metal with a deep sense of melody and an affinity for nature-inspired themes.

Their discography is a testament to their evolving sound, characterized by intricate guitar work, introspective lyrics, and expansive compositions. Albums like "The Light That Dwells in Rotten Wood" and "Believe in No Coming Shore" have helped to forge their reputation, marrying harshness with a haunting beauty in a manner that has resonated with fans of the genre. With more recent releases like "Patterns in Mythology," "Vigilance Perennial," and their 2021 offering "Key to a Vanishing Future," Falls of Rauros continues to push the boundaries of their music, exploring new sonic territory while maintaining the emotive power that has long defined their work.
