Vvornth and Kothaar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vvornth and Kothaar were allegedly names for a demon (as was "Quorthon") discovered by Quorthon (of the pioneering Swedish proto-black metal and viking metal band Bathory) in his reading, and as such were the perpetual respective pseudonyms of whoever played the drums (when not done using a machine) and bass for Bathory at a given moment. The official lineup only emerged in the late 1980s after a great deal of initial mystery, lasting at least for the first three albums, over who the members of the band actually were.
Not much is commonly known about the men constituting Vvornth and Kothaar, as Quorthon was the only consistent member (where the word here means "individual human") of Bathory and thus presumably the most interesting to whatever media followed black metal artists.
