There are multiple artists with this name:


1) Sworn is from Bergen, Norway, and plays Melodic Black Metal with elements from heavy metal and death metal.

It started out as a one man band by Christoffer Kjørsvik in 2005. He created the demo Night Supremacy and self-released it. Lars Jensen from Myrkgrav did the vocals on this recording as a session-vocalist. The demo received great feedback, and not long after the release

of the demo, Christoffer invited his old friend Tom Ian Klungland to play drums in Sworn, which he gladly accepted. Tom Ian brought with him Gøran Hope and Leif Herland from an old band, and Roland “Røst” Røtne was recruited as the vocalist. This was the starting of a new era for Sworn.

After intense rehearsing, Sworn hit the road and played some live shows around in the Hordaland county, which went very well. Later on, some new songs were finished, and Sworn entered Conclave Media Studio to record their debut album. At this time, Roland left the band. Lars Jensen, who also did the vocals on the demo, became the vocalist in Sworn, permanently.



2) Sworn is a an Armenian extreme metal band that formed in 2005 as an atmospheric black metal band but gradually changed it’s style to something more close to melodic progressive death metal. To this moment the band has released two LPs and one EP. In May 2010 the band changed its name to Sacrond

    Some friends told me that "Bastards and Conquerors" wasn't as good as "The Alleviation" so I hesitated listening to it. Eventually I did now and I'm quite surprised, because it's far from being worse. It's a little different, but I like it.

    Their logo looks like it says "MOM". Looks good, but not really a thoughtful design.

    If symphonic and progressive-tinged melodic black/death metal appeals to you, I invite you to a listen of Crow Black Sky. Free Pantheion album download here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4145235/Pantheion%20%282010%29/Crow%20Black%20Sky%20-%20Pantheion%20%282010%29.zip - NOTE: Link available for limited period of time, after which the album can be purchased on Bandcamp.

    New album is quite good, but a little bit too modern for my taste.

His Kingdom Of Black

The swelling stench of the dead draw flies and grows maggots where the wounds have yet to heal. The faces of the dead all look familiar, probably old comrades from a forgotten life. Somewhere …
