Elizium

Elizium was born in June 2006 out of the ashes of the Swedish Black Metal scene mainstays Marduk´s gloryday line up, featuring Erik Legion, B.war and Emil Dragutinovic. A first demo was immediately recorded together with guitarist Joinus to show a new breed of wretched sounds from the beforementioned veterans, taking focus off the blastbeating using a wider pallette of sounds from slow grinding gloom to exploding primal fury via frosty wicked melodies and progressive madness. During the fall of 2006 new members guitarist Marcus Lundberg and new bassplayer Richard Tiwas Kottelin joined the fold, sharing the bands vision to spew out further sulphursmelling metalhymns. The results are the new songs "Gemini is the Snake","Ninewinged Serpent","Jackal" and "Instigator" where the bands audial and lyrical concept is taken 7 journeys further. Currently 13 tracks have reached completion, look out for the debut of this promising band in 2007!!
