Arctic Dreams is a Serbian-German arctic-metal (sympho-industrial-black-death-metal) band originally founded in 2009 in St. Petersburg, Russia by Alexander Alex_Y Järvinen and Igor Sydius Pokatilov, and based in Belgrade, Serbia and Berlin, Germany[1][2][3]. The name of the group is imbued with the spirit of Scandinavia, reflecting traditional phenomena such as the northern winter, cold, and polar night. The themes of the compositions vary greatly, ranging from abstract concepts to topics inspired by books, movies, and games. For a long time, the project remained a studio endeavor, but since 2020 it has resumed its activities. In 2022, former members of the band were forced to relocate from Russia[4].
