Fen To Release New Album "Elemental Part One: Mourning Earth" In August; Shares New Song "Tectonic"

While our minds prefer to imagine that we stand on solid ground, in truth a churning maelstrom of molten metal and rock rotates below our earth's crust - just as our emotions hide beneath the skin. Fen are unleashing this primordial force in their harsh track "Tectonic," which has been chosen as the first advance single to be taken from the East Anglian post-black metal stalwarts' new album: "Elemental Part One: Mourning Earth", which is scheduled for release on August 21, 2026.

Fen presents "Tectonic" in the shape of an allegoric and highly symbolic music video, which can be seen below.

"As the primordial spheroid of the earth cooled, the crust shifted and solidified – the colossal movement of tectonic plates underpins all that we know," mastermind Frank "The Watcher" Allain writes. "With 'Tectonic' we seek to explore this foundational ebb and flow, a brutal pulse that with one mere twitch, can wreak destruction upon the fragile leavings of our civilisation. And so does our inner self – a primordial, malformed kernel that lurks within, yearning to manifest as something with meaning, something with purpose. To know this can never happen – that true meaning and purpose will forever elude us – is a fundamental source of dissonance, bursting forth in volcanic rage and existential despair. This piece is one of the more direct songs within 'Mourning Earth'; pulsing and surging with strident anger, heaving riffs and moments of pure, wordless anguish."
