Svalbard

Neofolk, military pop, martial industrial project from Belarus.

Svalbard was started as an ambient one-man project of Vyacheslav Shenderovich in 2006. It's music was based on the mixture of dark ambient and neoclassic. During the winter of 2007 the first demo titled "Stille" was recorded and Svalbard was invited to the international festival "Crivia Aeterna". After the band's first performance it's conception was reworked and the following year Svalbard performed their new program together with the new member who since then has become responsible for the lyrics of the project. Now the music is military pop.
