Carpathian Forest - Rebellion, Manchester

CARPATHIAN FORESTneeds no introduction. The cult status surrounding this band in the true black metal scene is amongst the highest. CARPATHIAN FOREST are one a few legends surviving in today's scene that have stayed true to their origins and have not jumped onto the "post black metal" bandwagon. The path, so many of their brethren have chosen. CARPATHIAN FOREST was birthed when R. Nattefrost (aka Nosferatu) and J. Nordavind (aka Lord Karnstien) formed a grim alliance. The first demo "BloodLust & Perversion" was unleashed in 1992, upon a world unsuspecting of such an evil dark force in metal. This grim cold, morbid sound would become their trademark. The band and demo were both acclaimed and revered by fans and critics alike. The underground legions arose, in their possession the key to the paths of darkness and evil.
