Carpathian Forest
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Carpathian Forest is a Norwegian black metal band formed by Nattefrost and Nordavind in 1990. Since the release of the band's now-legendary Bloodlust & Perversion demo in 1992 and the Journey through the Cold Moors of Svarttjern promo of 1993, Carpathian Forest have gained a cult status in the Norwegian black metal scene.
Carpathian Forest are unique among black metal bands in that their usual lyrical themes deal with not only satanism, evil, anti-christianity, etc. but sodomy, sadism, sexual depravity, suicide, and other morbid subjects in addition to usual black metal themes.
The bands most recent album, Fuck You All!, was released on June 16, 2006 and are currently engaged in a worldwide tour.
