Choronzon
Epic, venomous, soul-shredding anger. Obeying the call of fetid flesh. Devilish crush to breath your last, dancing in ecstasy. Few, nameless, formless have hear

Choronzon are an American black metal band, formed in 1986. They take their name from the demon Choronzon and are up-front about their occult influences. In 1998, they were signed to the Nocturnal Art Productions, owned by Samoth (of Emperor and Zyklon). Their debut album was ‘’Magog Agog’‘.
Music
The music is based in black metal, and extends to post-black metal and industrial, incorporating both organic sounds and techno-filtration. This band, along with Mysticum from Norway were one of the earliest examples of this mixing of black metal and industrial. The later works tend to be less rock-oriented and more experimental.

Killer stuff
Surge of Blood is brilliant. I have always been a big Arcturus fan... and of course Emperor as well... but I have yet to come across many people who are into Arcturus. They are truly a great band. Anyway, this song has everything... good guitar riffs, unique drumm loops, ambience, atomesphere, good vocals, and some weird transitions... like the one at about 5:35 and the following riff. After that part of the song up until about 7:20, the music seems to turn into some pretty technical chaos. As in, chaos achieved through what must have been some pretty serious thought and planning. I would be interested in hearing some of your other works... this is a really intelligent recording and there are not many (if any) people out there who could duplicate your sound.
