Ian Read founded Fire + Ice in 1991 after several years as a member of Sol Invictus.
FIRE + ICE takes the purity and philosophy of early music and melds it into a message redolent with powerful seeds of honour, truth, loyalty and the bond of true friendship. The music reflects Ian Read's keen interests in magic lore, runes, tradition, renaissancemedievalism, Nordic mysticism and other occult mysteries.
His work as Fire + Ice has a large amount of influence on neofolk music. The year 2000 saw the last last Fire + Ice release "Birdking", this higly praised album already a classic in this genre, is now followed by "Fractured Man". 12 years later Ian Read and his contributors are showing that Fire + Ice music is still outstanding in the nowadays neofolk music scene. The well arranged conceptional recordings are refreshening a whole genre, together with the participating artists Ian Read did create another milestone in his musical carreer.
 CD comes in nice Digipak.
