Sanguinarius, from Bloemfontein, South Africa, is the 'Psychotic Black Metal' project of Anton van Niekerk. The project is mainly associated with the Black Metal genre. It is, however trying to create a feeling of insanity in the music thus calling it "Psychotic Black Metal", combining the dark melodic riffs of Black Metal with an eerie, mind altering sound.
Anton started playing and composing songs in 2003. By 2004 Anton started recording complete songs, playing all instruments himself. In 2005 "Sanguinarius" was formed and Anton was joined by Alta Louw in 2006 as the lyric writer, writing lyrics to themes given to her by Anton.
In 2007 the project gained international recognition when Anton joined myspace music. Complete songs where uploaded and Sanguinarius quickly gained an international fanbase. Airplay, interviews and reviews around the globe followed.
