Norsefire

About Me

Norsefire is a band whose official year of birth was in 2007. Formerly Unjust, Eternal Catharsis, Umlaut, and Frozen Dusk is a complex blend of Melodic Death Metal, Black Metal and Viking Metal. While relatively new, the band is quickly recognizing their own sound and writing material that is sure to be as ambitious as its members.
History: The idea behind creating a band goes to current guitarist Zach Stone and Ex-drummer Jon Starnes back in their middle school years. While there, they met a pre-metalhead Chris Geringer, who they lost contact with after he traveled back to Nevada. Two years later, Chris returned to Columbia with an entirely different appearance and attitude and inklings of a band were rekindled after a couple of months. Though not technically ready for such an endeavor, months of skrewing around at Zach's house lead to a new found seriousness towards their art. Redoubling their efforts, they quickly went in search of a Bassist and Vocalist to complete their act. ex-vocalist Brendan Roberts was found during the '06 school year but left the during the summer of 08. Alec Stanley replaced the extremely useless Alex Petersen for the bassist slot during the summer of '07 to finalize the lineup. Rather than replace Roberts with a new vocalist, the band decided to have the remaining members pick up vocal duties. Currently searching for a drummer to complete their lineup Norsefire prepares to assault the ears of all the world!
