Группа Aeternus Информация о группе AETERNUS was formed in the beginning of the 90's in the rainswept town of Bergen, Norway. From the start Ares (bass/vox) was and is the mainman in AETERNUS, and the actual concept of AETERNUS was spawned from his mind... The concept is based upon darkness in all its forms, in the mood of the music and in the lyrics on the dark side of nature’s forces...This explains why AETERNUS likes to be called True Dark Metal. After the usual demo-period (in which AETERNUS released two demos, only the second being of any particular interest) AETERNUS gets a deal for a MCD with the very little Tjechian label VIEW BEYOND PRODUCTIONS, which they record in 1995 and proudly called "Dark Sorcery"... This MCD shows the first time the mature side of AETERNUS, the songs being slow, dark and grim and above all inhumanly heavy !!! The MCD attracts a lot of labels, but the band stays cool and demands straight from the start a big studio-budget to record their album in Grieghallen with Pytten... In December 1996 HAMMERHEART RECORDS showed interest in AETERNUS and after hearing some raw mixes they went for the deal... The CD called "Beyond the Wandering Moon" was finished in January ’97 and released in March 1997 (first 3.000 copies in a huge digipack), followed by an European tour with HADES and HELHEIM. The debut-album received worldwide raging reviews and AETERNUS hit the road once more in June as a support for EMPEROR and LIMBONIC ART... The line-up since 1996 features Ares (guitar/vox, ex-GORGOROTH and former live-session member for IMMORTAL), Vrolok (drums, also ex-GORGOROTH, ex-THY GRIEF) and Morrigan (bass/keyboards, also session-member in OBTAINED ENSLAVEMENT). HAMMERHEART RECORDS released the "Dark Sorcery" MCD again (it was sold out since a year, due to a limited pressing of 3.000 copies) in January 1998, with a new design (a very nice digipack design with new artwork) and an incredible bonussong called "In the Darkest Circles of Time", showing the Darkest roots of AETERNUS ever !!! In December, January and February 1998 AETERNUS recorded their second album, entitled "...And so the Night Became", in Grieghallen with Pytten once more... AETERNUS sounded even darker on this release, more perfect, and even more heavily produced and much better and diverse songs...again released in a digipack (unlimited). 1999: The band became a four-piece when the new second guitarist is Radek joined the band. He's originally from Poland but lives in Bergen, Norway. In November 1999 Aeternus' third album "Shadows Of Old" saw the light at Hammerheart Records. Here the band developed a faster, more death-metal oriented sound without leaving their dark doomed black/folk roots behind. "Shadows Of Old" is Aeternus' most succesful album so far and their extensive touring through Europe has created a huge fanbase. In 2001 Aeternus hits back with a giant strike. First a midprice cd "Burning The Shroud" will be released in January, followed by their highly-expected 4th album "Ascension Of Terror". After the 2001 album "Ascension of Terror", Aeternus departed with Hammerheart Records. Shortly after Aeternus' crushing performance on the Inferno Festival 2002, the band inked a 3-album deal with Nocturnal Art Productions. The band is currently in pre-production for their next and 6th full-length album, the second album on NAP and they will enter Grieghallen Studios in June 2004 with the legendary Pytten as producer. The new album will hopefully be released before next year, Ares has promissed allot of original aspects as well as good old Aeternus atmospheres. The band has now taken other and new steps and they are trying to let go of the Death Metal elements which have been used allot on their latest albums. Though they still go for Dark Metal and brutal emotions, make no mistakes there...

Ничего особо плохого сказать не могу, равно как и ничего хорошего. За исключением пары-тройки фрагментов, альбом вообще в холостую пролетел...
