Biography

St. Oswald, Germany (2003 – present)

Wolfchant is a band formed in St. Oswald, Germany in 2003. The band plays epic pagan metal with influences of black metal and viking/folk metal. Wolfchant’s lyrics deal with legends and folk tales from Nordic mythology. They’re signed on CCP Records, Linz, Austria.

Biography

In 2003, the formation WOLFCHANT was founded in St. Oswald/ Lower Bavaria (Ger.) by the members Lokhi (voc.), Gaahnt (bass), Skaahl (lead guit.) and Norgahd (drums). The band emanated from diverse extreme metal bands, which were left by the members, to advance their individual musical development. On the first demo “The Fangs Of The Southern Death”, which was published in 2004, music style was a mixture of gruffy melodic death and dark metal. But in the same year, the band produced another demo called “The Herjan Trilogy” which was the cornerstone for the new style of WOLFCHANT. Henceforth, songwriting has been pushed on a high melodic and hymnic level with a broad spectrum of mood and temper. Due to the very positive feedback on the existing material, WOLFCHANT restarted working on new songs more enthusiastic than ever to finalize times of just making demos. In 2005 the line up was completed with Derrmorh (rh.guit). Heavily laden with new songs they participated different samplers, which attracted attention of diverse record labels who were aiming for partnership. Finally, the deal was arranged with the label CCP Records. Together they are working on the growing success of WOLFCHANT.

    personally, I think the re-recording of their debut is much stronger than their last three releases (including the new one).

    I just realised that the last 3 songs in those ripped versions on the net, differ in duration with the ones that are written in the tracklists of metal-archives and of last.fm . Can anyone explain?

    Judging from the first listens I think it's a very good release but it does not surpass the quality of CoTBW for me. I'll give it plenty of listens more though.. Oh, and the cover is one of the best I've seen latetly.. Epic dragon stuff...

    Really liked the new album. I think it's the best they've done. I'll have to listen to their older stuff again.

    Digging the new album. But I liked Call Of The Black Winds the most from their discography and this one seems to be a natural progression from it to me. Lots of symphonic stuff and lots of clean singing, but the guy responsible has pretty unique cleans, I like them. Older fans quite possibly won't be pleased though, it's different from their older works, similar to how Call Of The Black Winds was different already. Maybe they'll like the re-recording of Bloody Tales of Disgraced Lands though?

    The new album is a big step forward. Especially the production is better...

    Das Englisch auf Bloody Tales Of Disgraced Lands lässt ein wenig zu wünschen übrig, musikalisch hingegen eigentlich ziemlich gut.
