Lappeenranta, Finland (1999 – present)

A black metal band formed in Lappeenranta, Finland in 1999 as a solo project of Shatraug.

The current line-up is:
Shatraug - Guitars (Horna / Behexen)
Hoath Torog - Vocals (Behexen)
Horns - Drums (Behexen)

The lyrical content and theme is centered mainly on depression, misanthropy, nihilism and satanism.

The word “Sargeist” is a combination of the two German words “sarg” (coffin) and “geist” (spirit). The name comes from the Rotting Christ song “The Old Coffin Spirit”.

From the official website:

“SARGEIST was born during the summer of diabolical holocaust 1999 as a clandestine solo project of Shatraug. First offering was captured at the Ruins of Cachtice entirely performed by Shatraug himself. In the year 2000 Lord Volos, the ex-drummer of BLUTRACHE, joined Shatraug and the first ritual was re-assembled. Both manifestations were released on Shatraug´s label Warmoon Records in a limited edition of 111 copies. In 2001 SARGEIST was enforced with Gorsedd Marter and Makha Karn, both of them later turning out traitors… With this line-up the “Tyranny Returns” tape LP saw it´s ignition and creation, at the Ruins of Cachtice again, and led everything towards the union assembled of the brotherhood that had formed with Shatraug and Torog. In late 2001 Moribund Cult signed SARGEIST to curse this world with their depression. It was soon to be learned that SARGEIST stand timeless, entering the Heinous Path with full-hearted and soul-woven art.

    No, I don't think Sargeist is dsbm. Generally, dsbm is slow, atmospheric stuff. Sargeist are a bit too fast, imo.

    Sargeist will always be foremost a Black Metal band.There are many elements there to keep the art pure and less boring, there are many depressive elements/melancholic feelings in songs, but by far Sargeist is NOT a dsbm band by any means.
