Infernal Scourge is a musical project solely by me, Arthas; music, lyrics, and vocals. Infernal Scourge came into existence at the beginning of 2004. The name ‘Infernal Scourge’ initially was inspired from human suffering and my inner demons. My musical style went through a great deal of changes since the beginning of Infernal Scourge. Starting from neoclassical, death metal and gradually changing into darker blacker music. During this journey of musical composition, I have finally found my true calling and discovered my soul. Infernal Scourge writes music by natural inclination. I don’t limit and follow strictly any musical genres and styles. My doors are open to any music that captivates me. My forged style in time is Symphonic, Melodic Black Metal with stand out Gothic elements, and a touch of Celtic. I don’t want to say Infernal Scourge is pure Black Metal, although Black Metal is a considerable influence to me. I have a deep interest in mysterious dark themes and enchanting eerie melodies. One thing is certain with Infernal Scourge; the unquenchable thirst for the knowledge of the dark. Honesty is an important element for the music of Infernal Scourge. Doing music is an innate desire and force within me since I don’t compose for commercial purposes. I write music that comes from the depths of my darkened soul. In the present, I am composing the songs for the explicitly dark concept album ‘Ella’. The composition process is almost complete. 7 out of nine songs are fully composed; major improvements compared to its predecessor. For one thing the songs are of a normal length that will hold the listeners attention the whole way through; no more exceedingly long songs. The songs follow the same theme throughout the album, and are theme related; unlike the other album. Infernal Folklore had an eclectic nature and the songs were not very related to each other. More creative structuring and composing went into my new album ‘Ella’. It isn’t just an impromptu of riffs added together. The riffs are thoroughly planned and put together. The guitar work goes from brutal malicious dissonant black metal riffs, to sickly sounding fast solos, to catchy romantic melodies; depending on the songs and parts. The vocals have a wide range of multi-dimensional growls and screams. Keyboards are used in dark classical epic arrangements of instruments, and melodies. And the mixing of the songs is improved, making the songs higher quality for listening .

I want to continue improving and writing much more musical material for Infernal Scourge, expand it, and reach a much wider range audience. In the current situation this is not very easy for me due to the geographic location of my working career working career.
