Cronian Biography
Norwegian avant metal duo Cronian sprung from the imagination of black metal regulars Andreas Hedlund (aka Vintersong, here code-named Mr. V) and Borknagar's Øystein G. Brun, both of whom channeled their multi-instrumental abilities and inborn familiarity with Scandinavian hypothermia into the symphonically adorned progressive metal of their 2006 collaboration, Terra. ~ Eduardo Rivadavia, All Music Guide
