Behexen & Satanic Warmaster - Behexen / Satanic Warmaster [split] (2008)


Behexen is a Finnish Black Metal band founded in 1994. with members Torog, Horns & Reaper. The first demo ''Reality is in Evil...'' under the name Lords of the Left Hand (1994-1996) saw the darkness in 1995.
They adopted a more traditional approach to black metal by incorporating raw characteristics.


When the Carelian woods rustled in thepassing of ancient shadows and the full moon shone its dismal Glare upon the kneeling worshipper, the demons whispered their horrid decree. By the binding rites of darkness and witchcraft, Werwolf bestowed life upon Satanic Warmaster in the year of infamy 1998, in order to finally realize his true expression in art, prepared for by years of battles in crafting unholy Finnish Black Metal in other hordes. Though men and their minds never cease to evolve, the core principles of Satanic Warmaster that were laid out in the brief ritualistic exhortations of the cult demo "Bloody Ritual" recorded in 1999 A.S. have never changed in essence. While forgotten and dreaded because of its unforgiving nature, this release laid out the symbols and signs of initiation to the pact with Satan, which remains the original source of revelation for Satanic Warmaster. Around the same time, Werwolf explored a more triumphant, militant and Germanic musical style with demo "Marsch Zu Neuen Zeitaltern" 1999 A.S. and while the concept of this demo would have only a little resemblance with Satanic Warmaster's intentions, it was important in forging the pattern of melodies used in the hymns that Satanic Warmaster composes in the name of Satan.
