September 7, 2007, 17 years ago
Anticulture Records have inked a deal with legendary Finnish black metallers GLOOMY GRIM. According to a press release: "...It all began in 1984 as HELLSTORM. Agathon (vocals) got his first influences as a teenager from the bands like VENOM, HELLHAMMER and BATHORY. The folklore tells, that Hellstorm was the first black metal band in Finland. Agathon wanted to create dark music, music from the depth of the darkest pit of Hell and with no compromises from any
other band members. Agathon started Gloomy Grim as a one man band. The biggest inspiration has always been the dark life itself and the soundtracks of the horror films he collected. Agathon made four albums with his a strong line-up. After the latest album (2004's The Grand Hammering), Gloomy Grim is back on his throne!"
Anticulture Records will release the band's new album in early 2008. You can download the Tapetum
Lucidum EP for free here.
