Biography

Mjölby, Sweden (1993 – present)

Desiderii Marginis was formed by Johan Levin in 1993 in Mjölby, Sweden as a solo project. The initial intention was to release just a few demotapes with material that failed to fit into the repertoire of his main band at the time The Wounded Meadow. The first three tapes “Consecrare”, “Via Peregrinus” and “Triptych” were released in limited editions of a modest handfull. Some of these songs later appeared in new versions on Songs Over Ruins, released on the loveable Cold Meat Industry label.

After the first full CD Desiderii Marginis was already known throughout the dark-ambient scene. Comparing the new project in the first place with fellow label Raison D’Etre, critics noted some notable differences - first, much more attention to the rhythmic structure, as well as completely different, different from the music of Peter Andersson’s post-apocalyptic atmosphere more suited to work beginning of the 90th of Brighter Death Now, In Slaughter Natives or Archon Satani. Figuratively as one of the reviewers - “Songs Over Ruins” - this hour tour around the world, have ceased to exist, where all life is ended, the road will not find anything alive, only endless dust and ashes, skeletons of dead trees, but the ruins of collapsed buildings and broken machines. “

The next album “Deadbeat” was released only four years later, in 2001 th. For the attentive fan scene is a sign that the work on the material most likely was a thoughtful and thorough, and the CD did not disappoint expectations hear professionally made serious result.
