Finnr's Cane is an atmospheric black metal band from Sudbury, Ontario, Canada, founded in 2008. [4]

Contents

The band consists of The Peasant and The Bard, with each self-assigned pseudonym chosen to afford anonymity for the members. [5]

Finnr's Cane's debut album, Wanderlust , was originally released in 2010 through Frostscald Records and later re-released by Prophecy Productions in 2011. [6] Their second album, A Portrait Painted by the Sun , was released in 2013 by Prophecy Productions, followed by Elegy in 2018, and a self-titled release in 2025 through Nordvis Produktion.

A unique feature of the music of Finnr's Cane is the minimal use of bass guitar, while including cello and flute arrangements. [7]

According to the band members, much of the music of Finnr's Cane is initially created by means of improvisation. [8] [9]

While Finnr's Cane have existed solely as a studio project since their inception, The Bard has described a willingness to play live if the right opportunity presented itself. [10]
