Artist description Songs varying from fast and extremely aggressive to slower songs to push forth other emotions. Albums usually begin and end with two songs which set the album's mood and then bring it all to a close. Between these tracks are songs about everything from our deep hatred for humanity, attacks upon our enemies, calls to arms, and stories inspired by the North. We're not seeking to copy or sound like anyone but to create our own sound and our own place within Black Metal.

Albums Of War and Witchery, Grandiose Explorations of a Darker Subconscious, Realizations Closer to the Absolute Truth

Press Reviews We recently received a small review for our album "Grandiose Explorations of a Darker Subconscious" in "Terroizer" magazine number 90. The review: "A hellish journey into black metal insanity. Sandwiched between two tracks of Abruptum-esque madness, the mid-paced cacophony of paper bag drums and buzzsaw guitar has obvious links to the structuring of early 90's black metal but furnished with a more up to date conceptual envelope. About as twisted as they come"
