An Autumn for Crippled Children is a band that exists at the crossroads of post-black metal, shoegaze, and atmospheric doom, carving out a niche that captures the essence of melancholy and lush despair. The band hails from The Netherlands and is known for its mysterious aura, often shying away from the spotlight and letting their music speak for itself. The band has been active in the underground metal scene since 2008, gaining a devoted following with their distinct blend of harsh, distorted guitars, ethereal synthesizers, and passionate, distant screams.

Over the years, An Autumn for Crippled Children has amassed a significant discography, with an unyielding output of full-length albums that showcase their unique sound. The titles of their works like "All Fell Silent, Everything Went Quiet," "The Long Goodbye," and "Try Not to Destroy Everything you Love" reflect the introspective and sorrowful themes the band favors. Their ability to fuse melodic beauty with the abrasive edges of black metal creates a dissonant yet harmonious soundscape that has resonated with fans worldwide. Albums such as "As the Morning Dawns We Close Our Eyes" and "Eternal" underscore the band's continual evolution and artful approach to music, solidifying their position as an influential entity within the realms of experimental and emotive heavy music.
