Dagsetr by Aelveryth
"Dagsetr" is an Old Norse word that translates to nightfall or the close of the day in English.
So it felt right as a metaphor, the day (as life or happiness) ending and the night (an end, horrors, nightmares, etc) coming to haunt you.
This is why I used it as an alternate title for "As The Night Falls" as well. The demons we may ignore throughout the day, rise as the night falls and come with a vengeance.
This is my first attempt at recording/producing at home, alone, with no prior knowledge of using a DAW.
The songs are pretty much jams I did when I had some time to goof around on ableton and maybe feel a little creative or even actually express myself along the way.
Usually started with a riff or a melody and the parts came together.
The lyrics are depicting what I felt at the time, so there is an abundance of negative emotions.
Depression, despair, anger, emptyness, impotence and helpessness were all very prominent and show up as the main feature here.
More songs were to be included but for various reasons they stayed this one out.
Hope you enjoy!

Hello there — Aelveryth is a solo metal project influenced mostly by melodic death, black and post-metal. Probably some fantasy/scifi in there too because I love that stuff.
Based in Thessaloniki, this DIY venture is an experiment born from a need to create.
Everything is recorded and produced at home - still trying to learn the ways of the DAW tbh.
Thanks for stopping by—your support means a lot!
