Immortal is a prominent black metal band from Bergen, Norway. The group began in 1989 as “Amputation”, a death metal band. Immortal’s early full-length releases were of a traditional, yet complex black metal style, but their acclaimed album At the Heart of Winter saw the band begin to experiment with a fusion of black metal and German thrash. The resulting sound was a style which characterized Immortal’s later works. Immortal has been influential to many modern metal artists. Immortal’s founders; Abbath and Demonaz, have attained a legendary status in the Scandinavian heavy metal scene. Out of these many bands Immortal has arguably maintained the most occult-mysticism image and way of life traditionally credited to black metal. Their peculiar music style of melodic black metal has guaranteed them a spot on the list of the best bands in the history of the genre, and has most definitely triggered the rise of their albums sales, even though most of the albums, with the exception of Sons of Northern Darkness, are quite difficult to obtain in some regions.
Amputation recorded their first two demos in 1989 with Demonaz Doom Occulta and Jorn Tunsberg on guitars, Abbath Doom Occulta on bass and vocals, and Armagedda on drums. The group changed its name to “Immortal” around 1990-1991. Their third demo, Unholy Forces of Evil, saw a stylistic change to black metal and earned them a record contract. Tunsberg played many of the guitar parts of Immortal’s first album Diabolical Fullmoon Mysticism, but is not officially credited.

I was going to say the new Immortal album is average but then I realised that one could say the same for all their albums, apart from At the Heart of Winter & the first one.

......"There's nothing more epic than listening to "At the Heart of Winter" while standing outside in the fucking cold waiting for the bus to arrive."....... WRONG. The most EPIC thing to ever exist is when I play Immortal and begin to ponder the DARK MYSTERIES of the "NOT FALSE black metal scene" (which includes bands that I like, all others are part of the "FALSE black metal scene" and must be scorned).

I've just listened to all my Immortal albums consecutively, in honour of the Frostdemon-slight snow showers we're having in Southern England. Who says the middle classes can't enjoy black metal...
