Based out of San Francisco, CA, deafheaven started as a isolated project between frontman George LeSage and guitarist Kerry M. After sending the demo to various blogs and receiving overwhelmingly positive reception, they accepted offers to play live shows and added members of Whirl and Temple of Saturn to form the quintet that today tours as deafheaven. On July 29th, 2010, deafheaven played their first show, marking the unofficial genesis of their rise to bay area prominence. Within months of forming, they began receiving interest from numerous record labels and officially signed on with Deathwish Records in December of 2010.

NORTHERN WARRIORS#Style: Symphonic Black Metal NORTHERN WARRIORS#Origin: Finland (Jyväskylä) NORTHERN WARRIORS#Lyrics: Satanism, Darkness, Occultism NORTHERN WARRIORS#Year: 2011
Alghazanth is a Melodic Black Metal band from Finland but, some albums would convey strong Symphonic Black Metal, dominating the music. The music is an artistic entity channeling the twin stream of all-devouring Darkness and the profound Enlightenment that lies hidden therein. The core of this beast is Black Metal, majestic atmosphere forms the flesh around its bones and Occult Satanism runs through its veins. Though its faces have been many and the shape has shifted often, its current manifestation harbours five damned souls in its flaming heart.

NORTHERN WARRIORS#Style: Black Metal NORTHERN WARRIORS#Origin: Australia (Wollongong) NORTHERN WARRIORS#Lyrics: Sorrow, Darkness, Solitude NORTHERN WARRIORS#Year: 2011
Woods of Desolation was formed by D. (aka Dolor) in New South Wales, Australia in 2005 as a means of much deeper personal expression/unburdening through music. Utilising the help of P. Knight on vocals (and occasionally bass) located in the UK 2005- early 2007 saw the recording of 2 demos and 2 split releases released in very limited numbers via different underground labels. These early releases explored more the idea of raw improvisation and experimenting with various different self-recording techniques to achieve the final result.
It was in autumn 2001 when Black Death Metal fanatic Mors Dalos Ra (guitars, vocals and keys) put some guitar lines unto tape which later became the infamous Necromantic Doom demo. Always possessed by things as the occult and dark wisdom involved in music, his style seems to be primitive old school on the one hand, but is totally disturbing and devastating on the other.
Thurisaz began as a quartet in May 1997, with Peter on guitar and grunts, Mattias on guitar and screams, Pepijn on drums and Lars on bass. In 1999 Kobe joined on synths, an event that defined the sound of Thurisaz in the stages to come. After several demos, the band released it’s first full-album "Scent of a Dream" in 2004. The album sums up the best Thurisaz has to offer: very variated, high standard avantgarde doom-metal with lots of emotion and depth. The reviews were really amazing and no one could really understand why this band hadn’t been signed yet.

NORTHERN WARRIORS#Style: Black Metal NORTHERN WARRIORS#Origin: Sweden NORTHERN WARRIORS#Lyrics: Winter, Nature NORTHERN WARRIORS#Year:2010 Recommended While the blend of folky interludes with blistering black metal passages is hardly nothing new, Dråpsnatt does it with a flair rarely found in the genre. With some genuinely interesting ideas and the presence of an almost viking metal approach to composing “epic” compositions, “Hymner till undergången” sets itself apart from the pack, making it a worthy listen.
