Satarial

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Satarial is a Russian heavy metal band which was created in 1989 by Lord Seth. It was then called "A.M.S.G." (Ad Maiorum Satan Glorium) and in 1993 when Angel Bust joined the band, it took the present name.

The band recorded and released 2 demo-tapes in 1989 with old-Bathory-like music and Satanic lyrics.

In 1996 Satarial released the demo album "...And The Flame Will Take The Temples Of Christ".

In 1997 the next album "The Queen Of The Elves' Land" was released. The band also has a video out - "Walpurgis Night". The next video - "The Queen Of The Elves' Land" was released later.

Satarial's music is a mix of emotional and aggressive middle-speed black metal with Gothic and Folk influences. The band uses instruments such as the violin and the flute.

Lord Seth, the principal poet and composer often uses a magical rhetorical and planetary music combination. Many of the lyrics are based on ancient ritual and initiation to magic.

Satarial plays live frequently. The line has changed much through the years.

The band signed a contract with an Italian label 'Beyond Productions' concerning the release of the CD entitled "The Queen Of The Elves' Land". Beyond Productions has also released "Heidenlarm" a mixture of folk and pagan elements.

Satarial often tours, giving concerts nearly every month in various cities in Russia.
