Trollech is an old ancient empire, older then all states and kingdoms of this world. We have came from our kingdom among you human race to show you that beings as goblins, elves, dragons, nymphs and all other creatures and beasts still live in woods. We want to show "pure" pagan spirit with one true GODD(ESS) MOTHER NATURE. In the year 1999 we recorded first and last demotape "Dech pohanskych veru" ("Breath of pagan winds"). In the year 2000 is released our debut CD album "Ve hvozdech..." ("In the woods...") by Eclipse Prod.

Czech pagan metal horde TROLLECH released their debut album, Ve hvozdech..., on this day in 2001 through Eclipse Productions.
One day after recording our demo I sent it to them. They distributed it and after came an offer to release Trollech's album. We signed with them. They are a firm interested in black / pagan metal a one in Czech Republic and try to "help" bands from our land. But there are 2 bands from outlands: Arkona from Poland and Astrofaes from Ukraine which are signed with Eclipse Prod. so not only Czech bands...

We're not only pagan band, you can take us as a pagan forest black metal band. I'm convinced we are part of black metal and you find this style into our music. Paganism is for us MOTHER NATURE and her laws and powers (Goddess and Gods). Beings who live in woods, waters, air, fire and in earth. Our ancestors believed in these powers and beings and we're convinced that our ancestors (who understood the nature very well) saw these beings and spoke with them. We lost this sense by our blindness by our ignorance. It's great to open mind and you'll see the unseen, the true masters of nature. I missed things as history, tales and legends, mythology it's a part of education not feelings. See our ancestors were not only great warriors but great people who liked and loved their families, land in which their lived, they understood MOTHER NATURE and they knew how to take from nature and gave it her back...
