about
There are three artists with this name: 1. Slavonic Black Metal with traditional melodies and atmospheres that characterize their Russian heritage. This is the music of free and boundless steppes; this is the music from the heart.

In October 1997, Sunchariot signed a licensing deal with Montreal based indie label SOUNDSCAPE MUSIC CANADA for the release of their debut demo on compact disc. Released in July 1998, "Betrayal Light of Fertile Ground" became the first Russian black metal release that hit North American Shores. During 1998, Sunchariot's line-up has been expanded.
