Woodtemple

Austrian Black Metal band formed by Aramath in 1998. The band spawned to support the war against the feeble church. Pagan metal is to play the role towards this goal. In 1999 the first and only demo "Swords Of Hate" was recorded and released in 88 hand-numbered copies only. This material can be associated with black metal, but already offers some epic elements foundations. At the end of 2000 the demo was re-recorded as Aramath was not satisfied with the sound, but it was never re-released as the material for first full length album was almost ready. The record was entitled "Feel The Anger Of The Wind" and was released in 2002 by No Colours Records. It was recorded in Poland's Eastclan Forge Studio and can be clearly labeled as pagan metal. The music is kept very epic but still played very heavily. The lyrics were written intentionally in a primitive way. Aramath already then has started work on the new album ("The Call From The Pagan Woods"), which was again registered at Eastclan Forge and released in 2004. Mini-album "Hidden In Eternal Shadow" followed in 2005 and third full-length "Voices Of Pagan Mountains" in 2006.
