Coming later this year - "Blood Redemption: Seven Penitential Psalms of Ascetic Devotion".


Haizum stands against the worthless elements of Black Metal. We promote strict devotion, a return of focus and dedication.

We are the Scourge.


"Permeating but simplistic, raw but elemental, stripped-down but well-armed, pure Black Metal... that is the fundamental basis of Haizum, a band I can see getting signed for a record or two by the time this sees ink. Haizum bleed soul-mummifying songs without the use of effects or synths. Cavernous lo-fi recording setups and songs built upon proper war-bringing might tear through the listener with trancelike buildups, occult tones and well-honed song structures rather than all-out brutality, much like comparable big-shits Watain, Antaeus, Glorior Belli, Funeral Mist and earlier Shining. Severely "for real" about their sound, this is no flavor of the month Black Metal. Haizum will do just that - Haze-'em all - leaving all listeners in a homicidal hypnosis, ready to disestablish something sacred to somebody." - Metal Maniacs magazine (review of The Temple Of Diseased Flesh)
"Showing much promise, Haizum here unleash three tracks of marauding Black Metal with a very decent production and some good ideas. Something like Gorgoroth reframed in Watain-like structures, this has a modern sound, though very much with a brutal, infernal focus rather than anything too easily palatable. With development and concerted songwriting, this band will almost certainly come into its own." - Zero Tolerance magazine (review of The Temple Of Diseased Flesh)
"[The intro] sets the scene with an air of palpable dread and menace before the title track heftily wallows in, filthy by demeanour but certainly living up to the well-produced promise... the raspy vocals here certainly snarl as if they are likely to open up a Lament Configuration of pain. This crawls ever onward with a deathly pallor before guitars scythe into 'Ascetic Devotion' flailing out a morass of twisted riffs and thrashing away with a bone breaking clamour." - Metal Team UK (review of The Temple Of Diseased Flesh)
"The quartet's breed of low-fidelity asceticism sure sounds raw, filthy and uncompromising... Haizum could become an interesting entity." - Zero Tolerance magazine (review of Orthodox Black Ritual)

Statement

We should not have to repeatedly state that a Black Metal band is not Christian, but it seems that this is the case...Haizum has never had any kind of Christian leanings whatsoever.  Our doctrine...
