Discography
Ancient — норвежская группа, исполняющая black metal, сформированная в 1992. Группа выпустила 6 студийных альбомов под лейблом Metal Blade Records. Поначалу Ancient использовали «сырой» звук, характерный для Darkthrone, но, начиная с альбома The Cainian Chronicle, звучание группы стало более атмосферным, сродни Emperor. После периода потрясений, касающихся состава, участники группы решили расширить круг используемых инструментов до скрипки и синтезатора, а также использовать женский вокал. история
Ancient is a Norwegian black metal band from Bergen, formed in 1992. The band released six full-length albums released by Metal Blade Records to date and a variety of mini-albums, EPs and special releases. Ancient used to have the classic raw black metal sound, similar to Darkthrone's works. Beginning with The Cainian Chronicle, they moved towards a more Nordic/atmospheric black metal sound, akin to Emperor and a cleaner production. After a period of turmoil concerning their line-up, they went on to add gothic-style instruments such as violins, a female vocalist, and synthesizers to their music.
To this day Ancient can be considered as one of the original Norwegian black metal bands that were part of the now famous scene of the early nineties. They were one of the very first Norwegian black metal bands to sign for a semi-major label (Metal Blade Records). There is no evidence of any involvement of Ancient with the infamous occurrences of the Norwegian black metal scene, although they were part of the same scene. Ancient can be considered as a historical black metal act by all standards, whose path took a different course upon their relocation around the world and subsequent exit from the local Norwegian scene.
