The band
A dark world.
Music on a grand scale.
Founded in 2021 in Saguenay, Québec, by Jean-Raphaël Couillard, Faelris is an epic doom metal band blending symphonic, progressive and neoclassical metal. Influenced by Wintersun, While Heaven Wept, Anathema, Katatonia and Ensiferum, its long, evolving compositions combine heavy guitars, majestic orchestration and emotionally charged melodies. Originally a solo project, Faelris became a duo in 2025 with the arrival of Matéo Gautié on lead guitar and harsh vocals. Together, the two musicians develop a musical world where the power of metal meets the beauty of melody, emotional depth and the art of storytelling.
