Beherit is a black metal band from Finland (Rovaniemi, Lapland). The band was formed in 1989 by Nuclear Holocausto (Marko Laiho), Sodomatic Slaughter (Jari Pirinen) and Demon Fornication, with the purpose of performing “the most primitive, savage, hell-obsessed black metal imaginable”. “Beherit” is the Syriac word for Satan. Through the uncommercial nature of their music, visuals and live performances, the band quickly attracted a cult following. Besides the “raw” sound, the band’s music is noted for its avant-garde side and emphasis on atmosphere. Beherit are now regarded as a pioneer in their genre.

Inquisition - Ominous Doctrines of the Perpetual Mystical Macrocosm





NORTHERN WARRIORS#Style: Black Metal
NORTHERN WARRIORS#
Origin: Colombia / USA
NORTHERN WARRIORS#
Lyrics: Ocultism, Satanism, Rituals
NORTHERN WARRIORS#
Year: 2010


Recommended If you like Immortal just listen this.

Inquisition (US) is a black metal band based in Seattle, Washington with origins in Colombia where the founder, Dagon, was living at the time. The band was fully realized in 1996 when Dagon left Colombia for the US and met Incubus who joined on drums. This line-up has remained stable for more than ten years. Their sound involves the combination of old school thrash metal, major guitar progressions with the depth and darkness of black metal’s chaotic minor guitar progressions. Dagon’s voice is very monotonous and chant like and does not sound like any voice typically used in black metal. Dagon has expressed that his vocal style is not meant to reflect that of a human, but rather that of an unseen entity in demonic form.

1. Astral Path to Supreme Majesties 04:32

Cork, Ireland’s Altar of Plagues was formed in 2006. Terms that are most frequently used to describe their sound include black metal, ambient and progressive or post metal, though it seems no one description can sum up the acts massive sound. The act themselves consider black metal to be the genre to which they are most attached, but on the contrary they have also been quoted to take influence from acts as diverse as Emperor, Björk and Arvo Pärt.
