Artist description Ambassador of Anguish plays a morbid mixture of death and black metal with gothic influences.

Music Style Dark Metal

Artist History Ambassador of Anguish was founded in February 1997 with the aim to play melodic death metal. At the beginning we had a complete line-up with a bass player, two guitarists and a drummer, but after some months our lead-guitarist left the band. We were also very dissatisfied with our drummer and decided to continue as a small band with a drumcomputer similar to Summoning or Limbonic Art. The line-up Artragon (bass and vocals) and Thalos (guitars) hasn't changed until now. Since these days we started to create our own style, first by mixing keyboards with common death metal guitars and later we integrated more black metal parts with blastbeats and some typical screaming vocals. Nowadays we would describe our music as dark metal. In Summer 1998 we released our first demo "Sorrow" that was only sold to our friends. From 1998 to 1999 we also played in a death metal band called Human Target and made a few gigs with them. Unfortunately it is impossible to do any concerts with Ambassador of Anguish ourselves, because we would need many guest musicians. 1999 we began to collect ideas for our next CD "Der Weg ins Ungewisse", which was recorded in 2000 and released in March 2001. We wanted to make it a very intensive and atmospheric album and combined some fast and extreme parts with melodic and mystic gothic metal elements. Most of the Lyrics on "Der Weg ins Ungewisse" are written in German and are about suicide, the apocalypse, despair, executions and live after death. In spring 2001 Thalos became a member of the fantasy black metal band Enid, but Ambassador of Anguish will still play an important role for him.
