Dark sludge post metallers WREN contemplate dark woods in their new video “The Herd”

June 8, 2017
1 min read

Introduced through an IDIOTEQ interview 3 years ago, London based dark metallers WREN are finally on the verge of releasing their long awaited full length record. Dubbed “Auburn Rule”, the record will be out on July 14th via Holy Roar Records, and have just received a proper teaser in the form of a music video for the band’s new, slowly-burning, dense track “The Herd”. Directed by GardenBack, the clip takes you for a disturbing journey through black and white shots of beautiful landscapes and forest that hides more than its deceiving calm.

Following on from the release of their ‘Host‘ EP last year, London-based progressive sludge/noise-rock four-piece Wren, have announced details of their new album ‘Auburn Rule‘.

The band have garnered healthy support from select press in their short time together, with debut EP “Host” commanding praise from the likes of CVLT Nation, The Obelisk, Terrorizer and, most notably, Daniel P. Carter with repeat plays on BBC Radio 1’s Rock Show. Supports under the likes of Minsk, Ohhms and Kowloon Walled City have helped establish the band both in the UK and EU.

WREN tour dates:
