Meyhna'ch (born William Roussel on February 17, 1976), who also goes under the alias Melancholic Lord of Torments, is the man behind the one man bands Mütiilation, and Satanicum Tenebrae. His main instruments were formerly vocals and guitar, until 2000 when he decided to continue the band alone.

Meyhna'ch was once a member of the notorious French Circle "Les Légions Noires". He contributed to projects from 1994 to 1996, when he was expelled for undisclosed reasons. During his time in the group, he produced the magazine "The Black Plague - First Chapter (And Maybe Last One)", in which he interviewed some of the members and bands from the circle at the time (1995).

Since 1999, Meyhna'ch has returned to the music scene. He first formed the band Malicious Secrets in 1999, which he put his first foray back into the scene since 1996. He then fronted Gestapo 666 from 2000 until 2004, and also started the band Hell Militia in 2001.

Meyhna'ch's most recent project goes by the name of O.D. Sanctus. He has released two demo versions of their songs to hear on their Myspace page.
