Niroth

Formed in 2001 in Letchworth, Hertfordshire, UK, Niroth were formed for one purpose: Making real Black Metal, to try and gain a bit more respect for UKBM, the image of which has been somewhat of a joke due to the weakness of the obvious culprits. Niroth has played shows with bands of all genres, from Electronic acts to bands such as Primordial,Enthroned and Demoncy, showing a respect for many styles but without the need to integrate them and water-down the music, instead choosing to translate influences from a vast spectrum of sources into bleak,violent Black Metal.

(Barbadian Metal Band)

On the band’s first anniversary, Oseaan Kroniek is created and goes deep onto the profound void of the Caribbean Sea; sharing tales of Neptune, Olokun and Stede Bonnet. Conrad recently drifted into the sinister side of the Pagan Caribbean Roots invoking Orishas and unleashing pure Afro-Pandemonium. The upcoming –Conrad Within- demo will showcase far more darker and ritualistic themes and sounds while scratching the surface of Conrad’s potential.
