Hailing from Southampton, the one man entity known as CAÏNA is slowly making an impression within avant-garde black metal circles and has now joined Profound Lore.

Commanded by the very young and promising musician Andrew Curtis-Brignell, and having released two demo tapes via Drakkar Productions, and the Caïna debut album, “Some People Fall”, this past year on God Is Myth, Profound Lore will be releasing said debut’s successor entitled “Mourner”. Caïna’s vision though goes much beyond the standard black metal paradigm. By also including elements of post-rock, drone, experimental, neo-folk, and sing-along acoustic to the set vision that Brignell has adapted within the realm of experimental black metal. Destined to be recognized as one of the UK’s most promising musicians in the underground, one can picture Brignell’s vision in a way if the 4AD label were to release a black metal album, or if Mark Kozelek of The Red House Painters were to make such an album.  Expect “Mourner” to confront the light sometime this summer.  You can get a glimpse of a rough mix of the new track 'Hideous Gnosis' on the band's myspace page listed below.
