Black Witchery - Live Desecration Ritual [December, 2001] (2010)

Changed their name to Black Witchery due to ambiguous circumstances concerning Witchery from Sweden.
The band was formed in 1996 out of the ashes of the US black/death obscure cult Irreverent (formed by Impurath in 1990)...to sole intention of Black Witchery's existence is to crush the current weak minded black metal circle of pathetic losers with no mercy and to exalt the eternal True Satanic Elite with blasphemous hymns of power, darkness, evil and hatred.
Originally incarnates as a two piece band (with Impurath and ex Irreverent member Darkwolf, under the name Witchery), a promo and demo were released and soon thereafter, Darkwolf left the band due to musical differences...Impurath then summoned Tregenda and Vaz to form the current unholy trinity and accepted the Black Witchery name as the new line up was far more intense and brutal; leaving the melodic sound of Darkwolf's style behind them...the band released  an impromptu ep (Summoning of Infernal Legions) and then the infamous "Hellstorm of Evil vengeance" split lp/cd (Dark Horizon Records-1998) with the Ross Bay heathens Conqueror (rip)....this split showed the band's fury and dark brutality and earned them a great deal of respect as being one of the few true black metal bands the US has spawned...the band also earned a reputation of being one of the most violent and destructive live bands ever and played several bestial shows to confirm this (the most notable being 2 separate shows (2000/2001) with gods of war Blasphemy in Canada-the first US black metal band ever to travel to Vancouver for such an abomination)...the band then entered the studio to record it's sinister debut, "Desecration of the holy kingdom" for Fullmoon productions...the album was a complete and utter holocaust of black speed desecration metal fury and was widely claimed as one of the best newer black metal albums in many years and also the most destructive and soul ripping cd/lp ever to be released by a US band....the band continued their deathmarch of live attacks  through the US and Europe and achieved many rabid fans and heretic supporters.

The band was then signed to Osmose Productions who released the second malicious attack in the form of "Upheaval of Satanic Might" ...this album followed the path of it's predecessor but displayed the band in an even more violent and barbaric fashion ....with more traditional hymns and unrelenting darkness and savagery, this album easily entered into the ranks of being  another demonic entity that would serve as a monument of real ugly, raw and grim black metal in the true style of darkness which is found rarely these days... "Upheaval..." was recorded and produced entirely by the band (with help of longtime heathen comrade Kris Cook (who had worked with the band on the split years ago)...this gave the band the ability to properly obtain their vision without the presence of the music industry leeches ideas...complete with grim and horrific Moyen cover and demonic anthems such as "Holocaust Summoning", "Blood Oath" and "Heretic Death Call", the album has once again proved Black Witchery to be the most desecrating and savage black metal band in the US by far.
