Kauan

by Tenhi

supported by

Metal Addiction It is a great soothing neo-folk album applauded by many as one of the greatest debut albums. There are some musical similarities between this album and Ulver’s Kveldssanger released in 1996. I think this one is the evolved version of Kveldssanger because the depth of musical expression is deeper. A feeling of solitude is well presented and articulated in a very soothing way. This album is kind of healing music to me. Favorite track: Hallavedet.

norodoom Dark acoustic folk at its finest! Tenhi is a unique band from Finland that to me is a forefather of this wonderful genre. Like watching the sun rise over the horizon... beauty shines through the darkness. Favorite track: Huomen.

Bardo Morales It was amazing to be introduced to the genre by this special piece back then. Tonight it sounds equally hypnotic and sweetly haunting. Kauan is the great stuff that became sublime with Maaäet. Favorite track: Kielo.

Łukasz Adamski I love this album because it reminds me of a particular moment in my life - when I began to study archaeology. It reminds me of the Ice Age and hunter-gatherers of the North. Besides that it's rich in emotional content and minimalistic in form - there are no superfluous sounds in it. Favorite track: Huomen.

about

The highly regarded debut of the Finns

The first complete Tenhi album “Kauan“ contains calm and solemn songs, which – typically for Tenhi – trepan inevitably into contemplation and prepare an ease of mind.
Even on an sunny winter-afternoon melancholy arises, although hopeful parts appear and show us through all this fog, that there’s still light and hope.
