Biography

FURZE is created out of the dust of WOE J REAPER – around 1996 partly the name for a project, periodically a band, then the driving force behind it eventually split it in ‘97 for the last time and finally started it seriously… In October 1998 Woe J Reaper changed the name to FURZE, at the time when lyrics like “Scolopendraarise” and “Devacamo Possessed Black” were written – and Reaper had moved out in the half desolate forest (where he spent 3 ½ years) to aid the inspiration force further…

FURZE/WOE J REAPER released 3 demos in the last years of the 90s and signed a deal with Norwegian Apocalyptic Empire in 1999. They released the 4 first releases including the 2 first albums TRIDENT AUTOCRAT and NECROMANZEE COGENT. Released in a time when little originality was happening in the Black/old school metal fields – FURZE is probably Norway’s (or the underground in general) most influential music to arrive in 1999/2000, speaking about Black Metal newcomers. Their choice of label has both gained and held back… In 2001 the label boss was put in jail for robbing a post office and the then finished recorded 2nd album was very delayed. Also AER thanked “no” to expand their distribution net – a question which came about very much due to the Furze records – they were always the only CD-formats available from their catalogue, to this day.

    It is interesting to note that Woe also uses the name "Furze" as a verb, like in this excerpt from the lyric of "Seance": "I receive the direct rays, I reap the weaker rays, I furze...". Also, there is mentioned a process named "furzement" (in the phrase "never stop the furzement", which is a good phrase in its own right..).

    Furze means "golden thorn" translated into English. This has an unambiguous meaning, which should not connote to any other subject matter other than alluding to the name of the blade of the Reaper's Scythe. Which is thus symbolic of pain through worth. This should elucidate all your ill-informed minds.

    Furze is fun! Also, he has some of the best song names ever seen in BM.. For example, "The Deeds that grasp by the candle's shade" or "Whilst the trident spawn and spectre" - nonsense (as perceived by the logical faculty of mind), yet still communicating something in a subtle way, which bypasses reason, straight to the heart.. Like navigating through lunacy and false assumptions..

    Furze is awesome if you're open for it, & who the fuck cares about the name if the music is good really?

    Why call himself FURZE? Why not Prut, Blaehung, Imperium Flatulenz, Darmwinde or Ræfill??

    Do people actually find the band name funny or are they posting to demonstate the post-ironic futility of their existence?
