BIOGRAPHY
NORDOR WERE FOUNDED IN 1989, ITS FIRST LINEUP BEING "FALSE PROPHET" (GUITARS-VOCALS), "MARDOK" (GUITARS), "GORE" (DRUMS) AND "UNBLESSED" (BASS).
FROM THE FIRST DEMO TAPE RELEASE IN 1991 UNTIL 1995, AND THROUGH SEVERAL LINEUP CHANGES, NORDOR HAD RELEASED THREE DEMO TAPES ("CEREMONY OF DEMONIC BRUTALITY", "HIS FICTITIOUS GRANDEUR" AND "THE SEMEN OF SATAN").
AFTER THAT, AND FOR THE NEXT SEVEN YEARS, THE BAND KEPT SELLING THOSE THREE DEMO TAPES TO THEIR FANS.
THE BAND SIGNED WITH SLEAZY RIDER RECORDS IN 2003, AND ALL THREE DEMOS WERE BROUGHT TOGETHER AND RELEASED IN THE FORM OF A CD, TITLED "NORDORIAN MANIFESTATIONS". AFTER THAT, "FALSE PROPHET" DECIDED TO TAKE THE BAND FURTHER, MAKING IT A FULL-TIME PRIORITY.
IN LATE 2004, HE HAD NEW SONGS COMPOSED, AND RECORDED THEM AT DEVILWORX (LATER RENAMED "DEVAZOUNDZ") STUDIOS, WITH "KANE" (A.K.A. FOTIS BENARDO OF SEPTICFLESH) BEHIND BOTH THE DRUMKIT AND THE CONSOLE. THE RECORDINGS WERE FINISHED BY EARLY 2005.
UNTIL 2007, "FALSE PROPHET" LOOKED INTO COMPLETING THE BAND'S LINEUP WITH TALENTED AND DEDICATED PEOPLE, AND SO "LORDWINTER" JOINED ON THE VOCALS, AND "THE ANTIPOPE" JOINED ON THE BASS. THE LINEUP FOR THE FIRST NORDOR SHOWS WAS COMPLETE WITH "KANE" BEHIND THE DRUMS AS A SESSION DRUMMER.
DURING THAT YEAR, NORDOR SIGNED WITH "DIVIRTA LTD" FOR THE RELEASE OF "MANDATTU" MINI-CD, CONTAINING 4 SONGS.
LATER ON, THE NEED FOR A FULL-TIME DRUMMER AROSE, AND "SNAKE" TOOK UP THE DRUMS IN 2008. THE BAND SIGNED WITH "UNDER THE SIGN OF GARAZEL PRODUCTIONS" AND "FLAGELLUM HAERETICORUM REX PRODUCTIONS" FOR THE RELEASE OF THE FIRST NORDOR FULL-LENGTH ALBUM, "HONORIS CAUSA-TIMHS ENEKEN".
IN 2009, NORDOR PLAYED MANY SHOWS ALL OVER GREECE, AND TOURED EUROPE WITH LIVIDITY (US), PERFORMING IN 8 COUNTRIES (GERMANY, POLAND, SLOVAKIA, CZECH REPUBLICH, THE NETHERLANDS, BELGIUM, AUSTRIA, ITALY)
LATER IN THAT YEAR, THE BAND ENTERED DEVASOUNDZ STUDIOS TO RECORD THEIR SECOND FULL-LENGTH ALBUM, "ERGA OMNES". BEHIND THE CONSOLE WERE FOTIS BENARDO (SEPTICFLESH), CHRIS ANTONIOU (SEPTICFLESH, CHAOSTAR), AND GEORGE EMMANUEL (VALET PARN). THE ALBUM WAS THEN MIXED IN FREDMAN STUDIOS (GOTHENBURG, SWEDEN) BY FREDRIK NORDSTROM & HENRIK UDD, AND MASTERED IN TAILORMADE STUDIOS (STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN) BY PETER IN DE BETOU. GUEST APPEARANCES IN THE ALBUM ARE MADE BY MARIOS ILIOPOULOS (NIGHTRAGE) IN "BOW TO ME" AND CHRISTOS ANTONIOU (Septicflesh, Chaostar) and ANDRONIKI SKOULA (Chaostar) in "5A", AS WELL AS SETH SIRO ANTON UNDERTOOK THE ALBUM'S ARTWORK.
AFTER A LONG TIME SEARCHING FOR A RECORD DEAL, NORDOR FINALLY SIGNED WITH DEATHRUNE RECORDS IN 2012. SHORTLY AFTER, DUE TO SHIFT OF PRIORITIES OF "PROFESSOR SNAKE", THE BAND WAS FORCED TO REPLACE HIM, AND "LITHRAS" SITS BEHIND NORDOR'S DRUMKIT SINCE THEN.
