Rhiannon Ellis

Rhiannon Ellis is a Canterbury-based writer born in the Black Country, the heartland of heavy metal. With a background in philosophy and a lifelong obsession with all things loud, she blends her passion and curiosity, digging deep into the stories, riffs, and chaos that make metal what it is.

A proud music nerd, Rhiannon will give anything a spin – the stranger, the better – but doom is her true sonic home. From the moment Electric Wizard’s Funeralopolis hit her ears as a teenager, she was hooked.

When she’s not hammering out words, she’s behind a merch stand, chasing gigs in new cities, or at home, bass in hand – buried in a Terry Pratchett novel, chain-weaving jewellery – or absorbed in yet another Star Trek marathon.
