Bio:

Among the first Dutch black metal bands in the early nineties, Countess have always set themselves apart from other bands by a fierce loyalty to their old school influences. For almost three decades, while fashions came and went, Countess stayed true to their vision and thus earned a worldwide cult status in the metal underground.

In spite of their sworn allegiance to metal orthodoxy, Countess have never shied from innovation. In 1994 they created the first black metal song with Dutch lyrics (Bloed In De Sneeuw), in 1995 the first black metal love ballad (Blood On My Lips) and in 1997 were the first band to take a rocking approach to the genre (Hell’s Rock & Roll).

Over the course of 31 years and 16 full-length albums, Countess’ sound has evolved from the raw black metal of the early releases towards a more traditional heavy metal-influenced style, culminating in a seamless integration of heavy and black metal elements.

In 2014 the band returned to the stage after a long period of not having played live. Since then, Countess have performed impressive shows at numerous prestigious metal festivals in their own country, Belgium, Germany, Denmark and Finland.

Countess currently consists of Mortm (drums), Orlok (vocals, bass), Valgard (guitars) and Hxa (keyboards). The band’s most recent full-length album Banners of Blood was released on February 11, 2021.

Onheil drops single as teaser for new album

Dutch Blackened Death Metal band ONHEIL unleashes their new song and video for “Like Shadows In The Night”. This single is the second raging track from their upcoming album “In Black Ashes” and is out on all digital platforms. The full album will be released on the 23rd of June by Swedish label BLACK LION RECORDS. 

The new single is accompanied by an Animated Lyric Video based on multiple pieces of album artwork and, with the inclusion of the lyrics, gives extra attention to the harsh subject of the song.

Vocalist/Guitarist Amok says this about the lyrics: “ ‘Like Shadows In The Night’ describes the worthlessness of living beings when they are enslaved as part of modern slavery, with no escape to get freed from their suppressors. It’s about entrapment, may it literally in a cage or by the many claws of society. which often ends up in death and sorrow.
It’s great to give extra focus to these lyrics with this killer animated video. ONHEIL is a band that likes to take a bird’s eye view and hold up a mirror to humanity to show them what they really are. Yes… and sometimes the truth is ugly.”

The lyric video, single and album artwork was created by artist Lordigan Pedro Seno, who worked before with bands and artists like Amon Amarth, Kreator, Decapitated and Matt Heafy (Trivium). The animation is done by Cloud Music Typography, who has done videos before for Arch Enemy, The Haunted, Mayhem, Napalm Death, Naglfar, Dark Fortress and Archspire.  ‘In Black Ashes’ is ONHEIL’s third full-length album, which is set to be released on the 23rd of June by Swedish BLACK LION RECORDS. The album is mixed and mastered by legendary producer Dan Swanö at the Unisound Studios (Dissection, Opeth, Dark Funeral, Bloodbath, Marduk, Insomnium), vocals and drums recorded by Jonathan Merrelaar at the Red Pack Studios (Picture), and guitar recordings were assisted by Bart Hennephof (ex-Textures.) at the Creative Music Lab.
