The audience response to our return was incredible. Every show we played with that line-up was devastating! We rehearsed quite often so performing the songs live went without difficulties... In particular, that Friday the 13th show was poorly organized. It was part of some "festival" that the promoter...
Formed originally as ANCIENT by Marcus Norman in 1992, ANCIENT WISDOM released their debut album on this day in 1996. ...it's kind of hard to explain why Ancient Wisdom sounds the way it does. But I know, when I started the band back in 1992 the big thing...

...we recorded the song "Of Stone, Wind and Pillor" as a three piece and that was supposed to be a 7 inch. That song really is the first full band recording of the group. I'd say at that moment Agalloch became a band. Of Stone, Wind and Pillor...
Arkhon Infaustus is born from our need to make something that was 666% us. And this is the result. What you can hear, see and read in Arkhon Infaustus is what we have inside of us. No game. No lie. No disguise. Hell Injection was done with our...
We changed our drummer because of musical differences, our new drummer is Reima Kellokoski from BELIAL. At the moment IMPALED NAZARENE is writing material for our 4th CD and we hope to record it sometime in feb'96, but probably this will be delayed. We are going back to...
One day I came in with this riff and Abaddon started pounding the toms to it in a really tribal way. I was expecting a straight beat, but this rolling thing started happening with the song. And the solo is just a bunch of single, sustained notes with...
