Lohja, Helsinki, Finland (1995 – 2007)

Reverend Bizarre was a band from Lohja, Finland, formed in 1995. They played slow and with dramatic vocals, following in the footsteps of bands such as Saint Vitus, Pentagram and Black Sabbath.
During 1997-98 the band relocated to Turku. All the band members have lived in Lohja, and Albert is currently living there. They pay homage for their hometown by using the “Lohja Power” text in the backcovers of their releases.

The band had planned a totality of five albums “Songs from the Funereal World” being the third, “Heavier Than Life” the fourth and “How It Was Meant to Be” the fifth and the last album. However, the band abandoned this plan and released only three albums before splitting up:

- In The Rectory Of The Bizarre Reverend (2002, Spikefarm)
- II: Crush the Insects (2005, Spikefarm)
- III: So Long Suckers (2007, Spikefarm)

Other releases:

- Blood on Satan’s Claw / Death in Spring (Split 7” with Ritual Steel, Metal Coven Records)
- Harbinger of Metal (EP, 2003, Spikefarm)
- Split with Orodruin (2004, Hellride Music)
- Slice of Doom (compilation, 2004, psycheDOOMelic)
- Split with Minotauri (2004, Metal Coven Records)
- Return to the Rectory (EP, 2004, Spikefarm)
- Slave of Satan (single, 2005, Spikefarm)
- Thulsa Doom (7” EP, 2006, Aftermath Music)
- Under the Sign of the Wolf Pentagram (US)] (Split 7” with Mannhai, 2006, The Church Within Records)

    the gate of nanna kicks too much ass

    They should have covered Beherit's "Sadomatic Rites" instead of "The Gate Of Nanna". Sadomatic Rites is Black Metal but it sound strangely doom, could have been very good by the Reverend.

    Sure, but I suppose the young'uns here want them to reunite because of love for the music. I'm saying they haven't lost the ability to write great songs, with Kimi doing it in Lord Vicar (the traditional doom aspect lives on here so let's call it "The Reverend") and Albert doing it in Opium Warlords (all the "Bizarre" you could ever wish for). It's no secret the guys don't want to reunite right now. Maybe it will happen many years from now but in the meantime we have Reverend Bizarre's old songs and all their current projects to enjoy.

    or maybe The Puritan or recent Spiritus Mortis.
