The Profile

Fire + Ice is an English neofolk project founded by Ian Read in the early 1990s. Read—an early Sol Invictus member and contributor to Current 93—centers the project on pagan mythology, runic lore, and stark acoustic ritual. Key albums include Gilded by the Sun (1992), Hollow Ways, Rûna, Birdking, and the 2012 return Fractured Man.

Founded by Ian Read in 1991 in England; associated with the neofolk/apocalyptic folk movement; collaborations and ties with Current 93, Sol Invictus, and Blood Axis; lyrical themes focus on runes, Germanic paganism, and folklore.

DeBaser’s reviews paint Fire + Ice as Ian Read’s rigorously runic, pagan-leaning pillar of apocalyptic folk. Highlights include the conceptual peak Rûna, the cornerstone Hollow Ways, and Birdking’s refined return to acoustic form. Fractured Man ends a 12-year studio silence with spare, emotive intensity. A 2014 Genoa set with Blood Axis underlines Read’s austere, hypnotic stage presence.
