Arctic Fever - Katie Metcalfe & Crown Of Asteria (Full Album 2017)
Arctic Fever is a spoken word/dark ambient album featuring the poetry of Katie Metcalfe intertwined with the music of Crown of Asteria.
Centered around the thawing of the Arctic, Arctic Fever portrays how the catastrophic changes are impacting the peoples, flora and fauna of the far north.
While the listener will have an insight into what is happening now in the north, they will also have the opportunity to envisage what life was like at the top of the world, before the Arctic was cursed with whisky, organised religion, diseases and heat.
Arctic Fever is a homage to the Arctic, and all who dwell there, those who are experiencing, in real time, the sea ice lessen, the permafrost weaken and the north they have forever known disappear.
