RAVEN THRONE - Atmospheric Black Metal from Belarus

RAVEN THRONE is the atmospheric heathen metal act formed in the northern part of Belarus in the faint year of 2004. Over time, through searches and discoveries, achievements and losses Raven Throne is looking for invisible trails to the mysteries of nonbeing. Inspired by the beauty of eternal Winter as before, the band continues the endless falling into the abyss. It is us who are the names of the abyss, and the ways to it are in ourselves.

The band's career started from "Великая тень Чернобога" (2005) full-length, which was never released physically because the band wasn't satisfied with the overall quality of an album. Demo “Сквозь пепел столетий на зов твой...” (2006) was more developed in terms of sound and composition, and it was released on CD-R. Full-length albums “Тенью сквозь смерть” (2008) and “Вечный, тёмный” (2010) were the next steps on Raven Throne's path. The band continued to look for its own sound and ideology by mixing different influences such as Gorgoroth, Immortal, Graveland and Hate Forest.

The 2012' split “Adzinota kruka” contained more experimental sound from Raven Throne side. Those experiments were unleashed on 2014' “Доктрина ненависти” album. This album had grim blackened metal sound in the vein of middle-era Gorgoroth, and its lyrics made a step away from early paganism, moving towards plain hatred to humanity.
