My names vannesa and I run this
Originating from the former name Black Death, I bring you, Darkthrone.
"One of the founding bands of the first wave of the fully-formed modern scene in black metal, from Norway and reigning with pride as indolent lords of oblivion. Minimalistic to extremity and mockingly destructive, this band created a sequence of styles unique to their worldview and personality."

-Background
Formed in 1986 byby Gylve Nagell (drums/lyrics), Ted Skjellum (guitars/vocals), Ivar Enger (guitars) and Dag Nilsen (bass). Darkthrone signed with Peaceville Records then tranfering over to Moonfog label. Starting off with several demo cassettes, their frist CD soulside journey was released. From this record, they formed the style of death metal, soon adopting to the black metal style you love today.
-Rumors:
Darkthrone received some criticism for a statement that they had intended to print on the Transilvanian Hunger album: "We would like to state that Transilvanian Hunger stands beyond any criticism. If any man should attempt to criticize this LP, he should be thoroughly patronized for his obviously Jewish behavior." Darkthrone later retracted this statement due to pressure from Peaceville Records, although the phrase "Norsk Arisk Black Metal" ("Norwegian Aryan Black Metal") remained on the pressing until it was re-issued in 2001. When Panzerfaust came out the liner notes included "Darkthrone is certainly not a Nazi-band nor a political band, those of you who still might think so, you can lick Mother Mary's asshole in eternity" which cleared Darkthrone's name as a National Socialist Black Metal band.
-Facts
In late 2004 Fenriz turned down a nomination for a Norwegian Alarm Award. He claimed that Darkthrone had "no damn interest in being part of the glitter and showbiz side of the music industry".
