S.O.F.A.R. (Saint Of Fear And Rage) is a Macedonian group consisting of seven people with different music styles, but combining those differences, we got something we have today ...uniqueness. Everything started in March 2005, with something that should have been a Thrash Metal project. We called it Necrotomy, but soon with the arrival of new members, the time was passing by and we created, what we have today, a Symphonic / Gothic Black Metal band called S.O.F.A.R. (Saint Of Fear And Rage). Like in every other band, in the previous 5 years we dealt with the problem called change of members, however, we would like to thank every musician that has ever played with us and have contributed to the band. So far :) we have published one demo album called “At Hell Gates” in 2006 and one album, our very first one, called “Behind The Falling Star” in 2009. In 2013 we have one single called "No Angel Of Mine". After that we have played many local gigs in our country. Hoping to promote internationally.

Californian quartet defining themselves as Sci-Fi black metal, maybe due to cosmic and interstellar topics, sounding like blackened death metal too ("The Maw"). It's a well-balanced melodic black metal album, with some fast-paced tracks and nice rhythmic transitions reminding me of Swiss band Celtic Frost (e.g. Terminal Odyssey). In other words not overly dominated by drum speed and also not sounding as extreme or as raw as some BM can be. sachavonkarl74

I think I discovered this one (well, Saor in general) in 2022. In addition to an embalming soundtrack go-to, it's definitely a cold-weather favorite. skyturtles

Iranian Depressive Black Metal. This is a one man band whose other project is Ekove Efrits. This is very dark but does not even remotely descend into any kind of dullness along the way. Truly fantastic music! Highly recommended!!! bmurator
