I became aware of this band back in 06 just by perusing an online review of their latest CD at the time called Revocation. The review mentioned the band featured Emil, drummer from Marduk. And the guy gave a pretty favorable review of the CD. Being a fan of Marduk already, I checked their site where they had some downloads available & was blown away. First Emil's drumming is just insane. Not just because he's fast; but because the guy plays drum riffs compared to a lot of other black metal drummers who just play fast & in time.
The other thing I liked about this CD is you can actually hear the bass guitarist in the mix. That doesn't always happen unfortunately. Anyway within a month or so I owned all the bands releases: 2002's Awakened Fury (Engineered by Andy Laroque), 2003's Unseen to Creation & 06's Revocation. Needless to say I loved them all. They finally released another CD in 2009 A Bliss to Suffer which is also great!
Musically I'd say they have evolved somewhat from Black to more Blackened-Death. But theres still plenty of grim kvlt-ish, metal to be heard on all their albums.
These guys seem (to me at least) somewhat a well kept secret as I don't often see a lot of talk online about them.
Anyway just wondering if anyone else has an opinion about them?
