Darkest Grove Biography
-The year 2000 saw what came to be the "Darkest Grove" from the ashes of a previous band which won't be mentioned. Deriving its name from the darkness of nature and from the sanctuary of a grove. A name that may as well mean to dwell alone in darkness and in contemplation of existence. Darkest Grove concepts are that of philosophy, psychology, astrology,science etc As well as an everlasting connection with the solitude of darkness. Pessimism is a very strong force within the Darkest Groves lyrics, simply because of the lack of spiritual acknowledgment in mankind. The imbalance of life is the chaotic falsehood that persuades this entity into the dark forces of nature and with its skepticism towards normality. Individuality is also another very strong ideology of Darkest Grove as it represents the empowerment of the self(Spirit), these all are a very prominent force in the concept of the Darkest Grove.
In December 2002 the first demonstrational tape was released via Forever Plagued Records. This demo consisted of 3 songs (plus other bonus tracks) averaging about 9-10 minutes in length each. Since this tapes release, previously and after the fact numerous songs have been structurally written but not recorded. The debut album "Pain And Suffering Shall Be Known" was released in Febuary of 2007. There has also been plans for a split release with older material but that still has yet to be seen as of now. Plans to release the next full length album entitled "The Coming Of 2012" are in the works and are being scheduled for sometime later in 2008. The next release will be a 8 way split as of now as planned with a single brand new track called "Profound Perverse Persuasion".
Musically DG has been compared to such bands as old Graveland,Darkthrone,Burzum etc Ever since the release of the DG, it has been praised by most within the underground or Blackmetal scene. Promotion for this music has been thus far almost non existent and other than word of mouth there really isn't any reviews of Darkest Grove. But we shall see what the future holds....
Darkest Grove is misunderstood and shunned eternally!
