AENAON is progressive black metal band hailing from Greece. Formed in 2005 and quickly amassing a solid fan-base with its breed of experimental and original black metal, AENAON has released two critically acclaimed EP’s (2009's "Phenomenon" and 2010's "A Parallel Zoetrope") before starting to work on a very impressive debut album, entitled “Cendres et Sang” (translating “Ashes and Blood”). Their debut album praised by worldwide press as one of the best albums in 2011:
- “After hearing what this band has to offer, I can say without hesitation that Aenaon has boundless potential, and their music is a force to be reckoned with.” - Metal Review 9.5/10
- “I am sure the diversity will definitely turn some people off, but if you are into the more experimental side of black metal, I definitely urge you to check this record out. This comes highly recommended!“ - Do Not Count On It Reviews 9.5/10
- “Incorporating the unusual and the unexpected into the mix, "Cendres et Sang" is an accomplished album, a multifaceted beast that is intense, innovative, and consummate in experimentalism and not once does it compromise the aesthetic. Highly recommended!” - Metal Discovery (Uk) 9/10
- “One of the best releases we have heard in quite a while.” - Infernal Masquerade (Us) 90/100
