Biography

All began at the end of the year 2004 when Heimdall creates an ambient/melodic one-man-band project named " DunkelNacht ", tinkering with guitars, synths, computers and drum machines. He already composes extreme music and yearns for blackened metal? In 2005, a melodic/gothic trend album is produced with a decent sound : " Das Leiden für die Ewigkeit ", a work performed by piano. At this time, Nygh Gaunt joins the project as vocalist and Heimdall decides to turn the " band " into extreme metal. The duo records an unsignificant first attempt called " Eradiction process ".

In summer, Heimdall meets Beowülf who joins the band as second guitarist. Real rehearsals begin and the trio works on a new musical direction. Heimdall composes some tracks and already thinks about the first album. Through the year 2006, Heimdall achieves in parallel " Gjennom Tidene Til Døde Guder ", his second non-metal full-length that is more orchestral.

Early 2007, the trio becomes a quartet with the arrival of Alkhemohr as bass player in order to record the first official metal recording " Mass Grave / DunkelNacht " split release at LB Lab studios. Therefore, DunkelNacht becomes a real blackened metal band?
