| Darkwoods My Betrothed > Albums & Lyrics |
The Emperor Nattasett - Vocals
Hallgrim - Electric guitars & bassguitar
The band was formed in the spring 1993 originally under name Virgin's Cunt. The first demo called "Reborn In The Promethean Flame" -demo '93 was mainly recorded for their own pleasure and only a few copies were spread, but it got attention from some people and that gave kick to develope things further.
The 2nd demo "Dark Aureoles Gathering" was recorded in the winter 1994 and band's name was changed to Darkwoods My Betrothed. That demo was received very well in the underground scene and some months later it led to a recordingdeal with South-Korean Hammerheart Productions. So the 1st cd "Heirs Of The Northstar" was released in the late winter 1995. This "Cold Northern BlackMetal" -feeling on the demotapes changed to majestic and atmospheric heathen art. Some "drunken viking"-style clean singing was added and the whole concept became more epic.
But fast songs weren't forgotten and variety continued on the next album "Autumn Roars Thunder", released by German Solistitium Records in the spring 1996. Raw BlackMetal and atmospheric, epic hymns was the recipe of this pagan battle album.
But on "Witch-hunts" Darkwoods My Betrothed attacks grimmer than ever!!! Epic stuff is gone for good and grim, majestic BlackMetal rules again. As a result of several coincidences the releasing date of the album was delayed almost a year from originally planned, but not some great developement happened that time and not the least meaningful is that the album is finally released by Spinefarm recordsÉ
Band's line-up has been unchanged since the early days, except bassist Hexenmeister's departure in the summer 1996. He still continues co-operation with band by writing the lyrics. Band has played only two gigs on it's very early days and maybe some day in the future this inferno will happen again.
