  Annwn - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Annwn or Annwfn, ("under-world" or "un-world", sometimes inaccurately written Annwyn, Annwyfn or Annwfyn) was the Otherworld, the land of souls that had departed this world in Welsh mythology.
Annwn was said to lie so far to the west that not even Manawydan ap Llyr had found it, for you could only reach Annwn by dying yourself.
It was also said, though, that Annwn could be entered by those still living if they could find the door.

Hard to describe the sound of the songs recorded on this demo…labelled by the band as thrash metal and indeed on many accounts, Cwn Annwn is on a par with the early American thrash metal sound (Megadeath or even Trauma and Metallica can be found in Cwn Annwn’s musical world).

 KOTC Database: CWN ANNWN
The phantom hunting dogs of Arawn, the Lord of the Underworld, the Cwn Annwn (coon anoon) appear as very large, white hounds with red ears.
They terrify ordinary dogs and thus a dog howling at night is regarded as a bad omen (as thought they are frightened of nearby Cwn).
They are thought to come from the Otherworld to hunt the souls of the living through the air and they seek to kidnap mortals and to lead the souls of the damned to infernal regions.

But anyway, CWN Annwn is an awesome metal band.
The CWN ANNWN sound is very fast-paced classic metal mixed in with some alternative and blues.
The one thing that is cool (too me) is that you don't hear the typical deep growl in the vocals.

With such an atypical and interesting band name, as well as hailing from the mid-west, Cwn Annwn (pronounced coo-nah-NOON) was a band I was interested in checking out.
Be that as it may, Cwn Annwn's new demo needs an angle.
Naming themselves after the Welsh "hounds of hell", on first impression Cwn Annwn paints a vivid word picture of a severe thrash metal outfit, but musically burns a bit too rich in the gas/oil mixture.
