BEHERIT

Hailing from Rovaniemi, Finland, Beherit emerged in 1989, founded by Marko Laiho (Nuclear Holocausto Vengeance), Jari Vaarala (Daemon Fornication), and Jari Pirinen (Sodomatic Slaughter), quickly becoming pioneers in the black metal scene. Their 1993 album, Drawing Down the Moon, released on Spinefarm Records, is considered a genre classic, notable for its experimental use of synths and computer-altered vocals. While their early sound was raw and primitive, Beherit later explored dark ambient textures on albums like H418ov21.C and Electric Doom Synthesis. The band's current North American tour in 2027 features classic material from their early black metal releases. Expect a journey into the primal, ritualistic depths of extreme metal.
