János Juhász - guitar

Discography:

Thy Catafalque were born in 1998 in a small town of Hungary playing traditional, epic black metal in the beginning by tamás kátai (Gire) and János Juhász. Just after their first and only demo KaOtic Productions decided to release their first album in 1999 entitled Sublunary Tragedies, followed by the second record Microcosmos in 2001.

Throughout the passing years the music became more and more experimental with deep touches of electronic and folklorish influences feeding from their homeland in Central Europe. Meanwhile KaOtic Productions ceased to exist, so the third album Tűnő Idő Tárlat (An Exhibition of Vanishing Time) came to sunlight as a self-financed production in 2004. By this time lyrics turned into Hungarian and music turned out to be the most diverse and atmospheric experimentum coming out from the band. Cosmic music from micro to macro, from matter to spirit and then back into the ashes.

Sokszor csalódtam már a magyar zenei szférában, most is így történt, azzal az "apró" különbséggel, hogy most pozitívan. Róka Hasa Rádió is jól sikerült, de személy szerint Tűnő Idő Tárlatot nem múlja felül. Mondjuk a mércét nem is ahhoz kéne állítani, hiszen erősen kétlem, hogy az elkövetkező 6-8 évben bárki is képes lenne felülmúlni azt az albumot.

New album is clearly top 10 of this year, and best metal album of the year, hands down.
