SoundClick artist: Taliesin - Pure black metal like Burzum, Moonblood and Lutomysl.

Taliesin is K. Haikara and Count Malsvir. Taliesin is dedicated to creating dark pagan black metal that is artistically viable, non-conformist and as pure as possible. Taliesin is about nature, sorrow and hateful intent towards humanity and modern existence, a yearning for a different older time, a revelation of fantasy to let mortals become one with the darkness that surrounds.

Why this name?

Taliesin was the name of two ancient Welsh bards. I decided on the name as it was short and also described by Pagan/Ancient outlook upon this style.
