Biography

Death Metal (early), Black Metal (mid), Punk/Black/Heavy Metal band (later) from Kolbotn, Norway, formed in 1987 (initially founded as Black Death in 1986).
Darkthrone started as a death metal group, but having released ‘Soulside Journey’ they decided to abandon the technical death metal style and transformed into a black metal band. The band’s sound has diversified over their career to include elements of traditional heavy metal, thrash, doom, death and speed metal, as well as crust punk. They mainly stopped playing live since 1991 and their last show was in 1996 featuring Satyr as their (one-off) live bassist. Since 1993 Darkthrone has been a duo consisting of Fenriz (Gylve Nagell) and Nocturno Culto (Ted Skjellum).
