| Twin Obscenity > Albums & Lyrics |
Twin Obscenity’s Viking Death/Black Metal roots go back to the Winter of 1991 when singer/guitarist/keyboardist Atle Wiig met bassist Jo-Arild Toennessen and drummer Knut Naesje in the area of Stavanger, Norway to discover a mutual interest for the mythical aspects in extreme music and consequently join their warrior-forces for a new band.
After some demo recordings ("Ruins" & "Behind The Castle Wall" in 1993 and "Revelation Of Glaaki" in 1995) that saw the three piece formation transform a rather Doom-Death Metal orientated approach into more majestic atmospheric Black Metal, Twin Obscenity generated heavy interest within the flourishing Scandinavian scene movement of those days for their musical creations and thus got signed by the cult underground label Head Not Found to release their debut "Where Light Touches None" in the summer of 1997.
The triumphant march continued for Twin Obscenity with the release of the second album "For Blood, Honour and Soil" in August of 1998 on Century Media Records and secured the band immense praise for their very direct song structures and atmospheric songwriting with quite an individual overall feel that made the band distinguishable from the rest of the Norwegian Black Metal scene.
The year 2001 weaves the release of "Bloodstone"; the third release of Twin Obscenity which marks the band’s getting back to the intense roots of Nordic extreme Metal of their debut album. Featuring returning female vocalist Tonje Ettesvold as well as the addition of vocalist Dolgar (ex-Gehenna/Forlorn) to the band’s original three-piece line-up, Twin Obscenity’s nine new song compositions are full of intense guitars, dwelling vocal-lines and an overall atmosphere of epic and majestic proportions that truly highlights this catchy opus to one of the strongest releases lately within the Viking Death/Black Metal genre.
