Switzerland (1999 – present)

Darkspace is an ambient black metal band from Switzerland formed in 1999, comprised of three members who call themselves Wroth, Zhaaral and Zorgh. Space-age names for an equally space-age project. True to its name, what Darkspace’ s music describes is the nothingness of space.

Their style is characterized by an ambient surrounding, hazy production and monotonic sounds, which is somewhat uniquely melodic and variable. Mute guitar passages with blast-beats take turns with milder passages and sometimes even completely electronic passages, providing a fitting tribute to the cold, dark and void-like atmosphere which fills their work. Unlike most pure black metal bands, Darkspace also uses some rhythmic parts. This is evident in their first full-length-album, “Dark Space I”.

Darkspace borrows a great deal of influence from electronic music, eerie, ambient synthlines which flow from the guitars. Passage with clear electronic clubkicks or total void-like ambience are incorporated into vocal samples alongside the unnaturally lyricless and very alien sounding screams.

Their first demo, “Dark Space -I” is available for free download here: http://www.darkcyberspace.com/dark_space-i.html.

    Can't wait to hear new masterpiece of space gods. I'm sure it will be worth of 4 years of waiting.

    For those of you who don't know, -I is simply a re-recording and remixing of the Dark Space -I demo. I suppose that Dark Space IV will be their next full-length album.
