Wrathful Plague

About Me

Wrathful Plague was founded in December of 2005 as a raw old-school black metal project by Nostaun. In April of ’06, Wavy Svendersuhn joined the band to provide drums/ambient keyboards and soon WP signed with E.E.E. Recordings. In Jan. 2009 Wrath (Seven Winters/Wrath) joined WP to provide vocal talents along with keyboards and drums. Wrathful Plague’s discography includes their minimalistic debut album "The Frostbitten Path" (2006), which contains vibes and textures simlular to the early 90’s Nordic vein, and their most recent release "Bitter Forest Winds" (2007) which marks an immense step forward both musically and production wise. Wrathful Plague’s black hymns work to create a cold, raw and medieval atmosphere, which recalls the older music of bands such as Ildjarn, Satyricon and Darkthrone with influences ranging from Tolkien’s World & Germanic/Norse Paganism to the frostbitten and formidable power of "nature". Creating a trance inducing sound which is a nightmarishly unbearable plague for those unaccustomed to the world of raw primitive black metal.
