Chinese version

Ethereal souls

Ænima

Brief introduction

Aenima began in 1997 by guitarist Rune and singer Carmen. Their shared philosophy of a higher esthetic spirituality through music was the impetus for Aenima - a play on the Latin word "anima" meaning "soul".

Their music is definitely of the ethereal type, but with the incorporation of dark grinding and spacial guitars it gives the music a rocky edge that is dark and driving, something that is often absent from this genre. Carmen's vocals are lovely as well and range from the low and velvety to the high trills that can send shivers up the spine.

Now Aenima continues to produce and perform music that pierces the internal, and eternal essence of poetic and spiritual beauty.
