“Chinook is a fantastic successor to The Howl, The Whisper, The Hunt, employing stellar performances all around that balance melody, fury, and riffs through its next-level songwriting.” – Angry Metal Guy
“Their spectrum of sounds on Chinook is so rangy and their influences so diverse that no song feels alike, even though they all fit comfortably under the black metal umbrella.” – Noob Heavy
“The motto for this album is “Strange times bring strange winds.” The truth of the matter is that such a motto can justify some music full of far-fetched complexity and overly sophisticated passages. But despite all their strangeness, Svneatr are free from this sin of modern black metal bands, and therefore are perceived very organically. “Chinook” is really great work containing carefully thought-out and excellently performed music, there is nothing superfluous here. Enjoy!” – Metal Observer
“…the somewhat oddball approach to songwriting keeps you on your toes, reminding you that despite the occasional ray of sunshine, devastation by frost is still a very real possibility.” – Toilet ov Hell
“SVNEATR knocked my dick clean off.” – Toilet ov Hell
“…diverse and different black metal album, with a dose of old school nostalgia and melody.” – Blessed Altar Zine
“If you like your black metal lean, mean, and without pulling any punches, this comes with a lofty recommendation.” – Nine Circles

SVNEATR (sun-eater) is a black metal band from Vancouver, Canada. They play a blend of melodic, atmospheric, and progressive black metal and are, in their own words, “the sound of nature screaming back at you.” SVNEATR released the demo “Serpents & Storms” in 2015 and their first full-length “The Howl, The Whisper, The Hunt” was released in March 2018. Their most recent album, 2021’s Chinook improved on their original sound, which honed in on their musicality and unique approach, was met with critical success. Chinook boosted their Spotify figures to over 1,000 monthly listeners in August, reaching #5 on Bandcamp’s “New and Notable” for atmospheric black metal, and charting at #33 on Amazon’s Global New Releases for Hard Rock & Metal, and #57 on Itunes Metal Albums for the United States. They have most notably made appearances at Black Mourning Light 2018 and 2019 in Edmonton, as well as playing alongside such bands as Apollyon, Tempestarii & Numenorean. SVNEATR is a rising force in British Columbia’s extreme metal scene and are looking towards broader horizons in 2022 and beyond!
