Orbis de Ignis

About:

Orbis de Ignis is a band from Jyväskylä, Finland. With roots deeply embedded in the Finnish underground metal scene, the four-member lineup brings over three decades of musical experience, blending elements of black, progressive, doom, gothic and all things dark. Formed in 2023 by drummer Pasi Pasanen (formerly of Swallow the Sun and Red Eleven), Orbis de Ignis channels the intensity and experience of seasoned musicians into a visceral, expressive soundscape. For Pasanen, this project serves as both a creative outlet and a personal endeavor—marking the first time he has written all the music and lyrics himself.

The band's debut album "Ancestral Strides" out on December 12th 2025, CD & digital!
