about
All began in 1998 when Sathor (guitar) and Nero Baratro (bass) founded Ars Macabra. In the beginning of 1999 they were joined by Abyss on drums and Azrael on vocals. During winter 1999 they went in the studio to record their first self-financed demo tape, 7 songs very raw of obscure hyper fast music with unconventional freezing riffs. The tape was re-recorded during July 1999 in between the studio session two new songs were written and added to the tracklist, and it took the name of "Iter in obscuritates mentis" which contains also Latin lyrics. After few live gigs Sathor and Nero Baratro take the decision to remain the only band members and to start looking for a label deal. During the summer of 2001 they sign a contract for two records with the Italian label Elegy Music they record the their first full lenght album "Daemonolatria Hypnotica" 9 traks lasting over 40 minutes of new material. In the summer 2003 the official band web-site is created and after several auditions three new members join the band, Carnag_744 on drums ,Tehor on guitar and Myst on vocals. During January 2004 the necessity to have a stable and reliable line up force Tehor to quit.During March 2004, due to personal issues, Carnag_744 is left out from the band and replaced by the drum machine. Ars Macabra chose to carry on as a 3 members line-up. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
