Biography:
Aythis was founded in early 2006 by Carline Van Roos, who also serves on the doom bands Lethian Dreams and Remembrance.

Their music is hard to describe, but it’s always shrouded in dark atmosphere and gloomy neoclassical landscapes. These funereal winds are exalted by the keyboards and voice of Caroline, who explores themes such as silence, death and loneliness.

The songs “Aythis” and “Shallow Blackout” were the prelude to “Doppelgänger”, the Aythis debut album, with which she reached a contract with the English label Paradigms Recordings, who released the album in November 2007.

After a label change, signing with Prikosnovénie in March 2009, the new album “Glacia” saw the light, more orchestral than its predecessor but honouring the neoclassical and intimate features of the project.

Lineup:
Carline Van Roos (Kyrinia) – Vocals, all the instruments
