Savushun / سووشون by Akvan

A powerful EP, "Savushun" blends raw black metal with traditional Persian instrumentation and themes, Savushun is a deeply emotional and a war cry of cultural identity, mourning, and resistance. Inspired by the Persian ceremony of the same name, the album draws from history, literature, and mythology to deliver a uniquely intense and atmospheric experience.

The EP's title is taken from the eponymous book written by Dr. Simin Daneshvar. Widely regarded as the first novel published by an Iranian woman.
