about
Dynasty of Darkness was born in Bruchsal, Germany in 2008. First recordings and video footage were recorded in an abandoned military complex from the Second World War which used to be the «Bundesnachrichtendienst Zentrale» or the Secret Service for the Nazis, the compositions were created behind machine gun dented bulletproof doors and rusted barbwire cells creating an unmatchable atmosphere of obscure, cold and eerie material which was used for their first demos. In 2009 the band recruited the double Grammy Award winner and Golden Record winner Jan Axel Blomberg Aka. «Hellhammer» as their official session drummer, who recorded all of the drum tracks for their debut Full Length album «Empire of Pain» at the Mølla Studio in Norway, where bands such as Arcturus, Ulver, Mayhem, Rotting Christ, Aura Noir have recorded. Later on Attila Csihar was invited as a guest singer and recorded an obscure track under his Void of Voices project; in 2010 the band summoned the double Grammy Award winner & musical mastermind Amund Svensson Aka. Pzy-Clone to work on full orchestrations and symphonies on the album adding an element of epic majestic darkness to the music. The album was produced by Morbid and recorded and mixed by Steve Tucker and Charles Logic. For the completion of the album more than 6 studios were used in 2 different Continents and 4 different countries. Dynasty of Darkness's diversity in music execution has put critics worldwide into question; unable to categorize the band
