about
DISORDER Darkempire was formed in 1995 by Chi-Xi-Stigma and Ihmisviha. The band released two demo tapes "Ar Thiao Rheibet" and "Symphonies of Deathcalm Landscapes" with very few copies printed. The musical style was back then more symphonic and majestic black metal than on the future releases. In the summer of 1997, the band was joined by Morgion (drums) , Bileam (bass) and Chemosh (guitar) . With this lineup the band started to rehearse for upcoming live assaults. They also wrote new and more brutal material for album to be released as a split CD with Dimentum in the year 1999. Difficulties started to follow the band and they lost their rehearsal place which they shared with Funeral feast because of continuous mindless behavior and (of course) alcohol. The last live gig was performed in the end of year 2000 at the funeral of legendary Baarikaappi bar. And that also marks the end of first Darkempire era... SILENCE The band was practically dead and buried, but in the year of 2002 few members tried to wake up the carcass from the grave. They amazingly enough managed to release a self published CD "Satan cometh" in 2003 which actually was a lousy home studio recording featuring drum machines as in those old demo tapes. Chi-Xi-Stigma, Ihmisviha and Morgion were the only members left and the misfortunes around the band seemed not to settle down. Lack of rehearsal place, one member visiting the mental asylum, the other one spending time in drug rehabilitation and so on. Overall
