Forlorn
Forlorn was a Norwegian melodic black and viking metal band from Stavanger formed in 1992, releasing their debut EP in 1996 before signing to Head Not Found Records. Their full-length debut The Crystal Palace (1997), recorded at Mansion Studio in Stavanger, combined the atmospheric and melodic currents of Norwegian black metal with acoustic guitar passages, keyboard textures, and choral-style vocals, setting them apart from the more aggressive norms of the scene. The band also released Opus III — Ad Caelestis Res and Hybernation before ceasing activity in 2004, remaining an underappreciated footnote in the mid-1990s Norwegian melodic black metal canon.
