A Celebration of 'Sorrows' with Agnes and Mary of Cwfen
from GBHBL Interviews · host Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life
Released on May 30th, 2025, ‘Sorrows’ (New Heavy Sounds) is the debut album of rising ‘doomgaze’ band, Cwfen (pronounced ‘Coven’). An album that proven to be very successful, something that has resulted in Cwfen touring extensively with Paradise Lost and Faetooth as well as playing Desertfest London 2026 and Download Festival 2026. We loved the album, summing it up as: An album that will haunt your dreams for weeks and months after hearing it, yet you’ll gleefully experience it time and time again. Cwfen have arrived, and no amount of doomy gothic gloom can hide their bright brilliance. Read our full review here: https://www.gbhbl.com/album-review-cwfen-sorrows-new-heavy-sounds/ To celebrate the anniversary of Sorrows, Cwfen have now made two special versions of the album available for the first time. The first is a digital deluxe edition of 'Sorrows', which presents the original track list alongside more than 40 minutes of previously unheard music, including blistering live tracks from their early shows and recent touring, early demos of key songs, and eerie sonic experiments composed during the making of the album. The second new release is a special 3rd edition vinyl repress of Sorrows on neon violet vinyl, limited to 300 copies. This celebration of Sorrows is a key part of our interview with Agnes (vocals, rhythm guitar) and Mary Thomas Baker (bass) of Cwfen. We also look back on the past year, the success Cwfen has enjoyed, what the future might hold, and so much more.
