Rising from the deep valleys of Kymi in southernmost Finland, I AM THE NIGHT is black metal rooted in the classic early 90s tradition, where walls of guitars and synthesizers raise the forces of darkness in a battle against the heavens and burning angels light up the night sky.
Brought forth by underground titans of Finnish metal, Markus Vanhala (INSOMNIUM, OMNIUM GATHERUM), Janne Markkanen (ex-OMNIUM GATHERUM), Okko Solanterä (HORIZON IGNITED) and Waltteri Väyrynen (PARADISE LOST, BODOM AFTER MIDNIGHT), the band's origins date back to the dimly lit subterranean rehearsal rooms of the mid-nineties where the fires of Vanhala and Markkanen's black metal zeal were ignited.
