About the Artist
DARK FORTRESS BIO
The past of Dark Fortress started in 1994, by Asvargr (Guitar) after his former band Carnage split up. Having written a a small amount of riffs for Dark Fortress, Asvargr was joined by Azathoth (Vocals) and by 1995 songs were completed that sounded parallel to old Satyricon. In the same year the line-up was completed when Charon (Drums) and Njord (Bass) united with the band. One year later their debut demo tape Rebirth Of The Dark Age was recorded and all 250 copies were sold. In 1997 Crom (Guitars) and Thamuz (Keyboards) joined the band. The music then became more melodic, as the band started to make use of the melodies obtained by two guitar players. The first concert was held in February 1997 together with Path Of Debris, Crack Up and Blackend. More concerts followed in that year, with bands like Desaster, Lunar Aurora, Nagelfar and others. In October 1997, three songs were recorded. Two of these were used on a split mini CD shared with Barad Dür The other song used solely for the compilation CD From the Mystic Forest-Part II. In August 1998 Njord and Thamuz left the band because of musical differences and was replaced by Zoltan (Bass) and Paymon (Keyboards) only one month later. These members came straight from their own band Nebulah Horde to join Dark Fortress. The band came to an agreement with the Austrian label CCP Records to release the first studio album Tales From Eternal Dusk in November 1998. Three days before the scheduled studio date the deal fell through. The band used the additional time to further refine the songs for the debut album. In June 2000 Zoltan left the band, because he started a new band, called Cremation, which played Death Metal in the American style. Finally in August 2000 the debut album Tales From Eternal Dusk was recorded in the Klangschmiede Studio E by Marcus Stock (Empyrium), on which Crom played bass in addition to guitar. New bass player T.Killer joined shortly before the studio date. The musical style on Tales
can be described as a crossbreed of many styles, first and foremost Black-Death Metal. Its roughly analogous to a mix of Dissection, Unanimated, At The Gates and Satyricon. In November 2000, Crom left the band because of personal differences with Azathoth. Some weeks later Charon left the band too, because he wanted to play a different style of music. In January 2001, Dark Fortress was joined by Seraph (Drums) and Santura (Guitars). Some weeks later the band signed a deal with the American label Red Stream for two albums. The band is now working on songs for their second album, which will be a concept album, entitled Profane Genocidal Creations, and which will be recorded in the beginning of the year 2002.
Product Description
Dark Fortress create their own style of Black/Death Metal that perhaps can be described as a mixture linking bands like Dissection,Unanimated, Dark Funeral, and Satyricon. Lyrically it is imperative for the band to articulate the same emotions as they do in their music.
Tales From Eternal Dusk is a startling and commanding debut album.
