LORD VICAR BIO
As the final nails were hammered to the coffin of Reverend Bizarre (1995-2007, R.I.P.), guitar player Peter Vicar started to follow his vision of a new True Doom Metal band. He felt forced to fulfill his need to compose and play this most arcane form of metal in the way it was meant to be, full of intensity, cruelty, heaviness, and force. Still firmly walking in the footsteps of Saint Vitus, Trouble, Witchfinder General and Pentagram, this new band brings together an international lineup of four devoted metalheads.
The first release was a 7″ EP THE DEMON OF FREEDOM, released in 2008 by heavier than life Swedish label I Hate Records (http://www.ihate.se/). The EP was based on an old werewolf legend from the island of Hiiumaa, as narrated by Finnish author Aino Kallas (1878-1956) in her novel Sudenmorsian (The Wolf’s Bride, 1928). The EP contains three songs, “Hiiumaa”, “Becoming One With the Spirit of the Forest”, and “Running Into a Burning House”, recorded in London, Stockholm, North Carolina and Turku respectively.
Stranger passing by, hear my advice… Look forward to the new offerings for the Elder Gods, and then remain on your knees while the Lord Vicar full-length albums FEAR NO PAIN and SIGNS OF OSIRIS are revealed to this world. For the first of these, the time has come… Get it on CD or glorious hardcover DLP book format, from German label The Church Within Records or your local Doom Dealer!
Fiat Ars, Pereat Mundus!
