From the cold woods of northern Quebec comes a new force in the Black Metal dimension. Indeed, SOUL OF DARKNESS has already been reckoned as one of the best Canadian efforts since the new millennium.



Originally formed as a trio in 1998, the band quickly gained a solid reputation in its native region of Saguenay, where acts such as Voivod and NecronomicoN were born. Influences such as At the Gates, Cannibal Corpse, In Flames were combined with medieval music to obtain an attractive dark and melodic result. With the final addition of Silomen on keyboards two years later, SOUL OF DARKNESS was then complete with its 4 lord vampires representing the 4 directions.



Despite their fairly new status, SOUL OF DARKNESS already did remarkable performances alongside Dark Funeral, Anonymus, NecronomicoN and Overbass among others, as well as participating twice on the Polliwog festival. Montreal-based agency B.C. Productions released the quartets first mini-cd entitled Cry of the Inner Pain, under license by Skyscraper Music. Already highly awaited by reputation, this release has been getting airplay by many local stations, yet without starting any promotional campaign. But the pain has only begun



2004 was the year of the quintets full-length debut album; the long awaited Torments in Withering Existence. This offering consists of 10 tracks of the most exquisite melodic Black Metal to ever come out of Canada. As the band evolved and shared stages with the likes of Children of Bodom and Kataklysm among others, SOUL OF DARKNESS is ready to take the world of Metal under their wings.



And their dark and misty journey carries on.
