Attraction to Satanism and extreme music. Those were the accomplishing and uppermost reasons to start Behexen. From those times we nevertheless have developed musically as well as mentally, but the meaning of Behexen still is the same, that meaning being the cultivation of Satan and death!

Formed originally as LORDS OF THE LEFT HAND in 1994, BEHEXEN completed the recording of their third (second as BEXEHEN) demo on this day in 1998.
The tape led to a deal with Sinister Figure. Their debut album Rituale Satanum was released through the label in 2000.
