Khors "The Flame Of Eternity's Decline"

Khors is a Ukrainian black metal and pagan metal band formed in 2004 in Kharkiv by Khorus, the former bass guitarist of Astrofaes. Stylistically Khors blends a few of metal’s sub-genres together, and also is characterized as heathen dark metal. 

The group keeps an active touring and performed with groups like Enslaved, Samael, Moonspell, Behemoth, Gorgoroth, Cynic, Obtest and many others. Khors has participated in a number of European festivals such as Motocultor Festival, Kilkim Žaibu, Ragnard Rock, OST, Dark Troll, Gothoom, Aurora Infernalis, Hell Fast Attack, Metal Head's Mission, Oskorei, and Carpathian Alliance.

The group was formed in 2004 with the former bass guitarist of Astrofaes, Khorus, who left the group to create his own project. In August 2004 the drummer Khaoth, a former member of Astrofaes and Tessaract, has become a part of the band. Then, at a later date, the guitarist and vocalist Helg, who was a member of Runes of Dianceht, joined the group. In fall 2004, the band recorded their debut album The Flame of Eternity’s Decline, released by Audio Alchemia Studio. Saturious, the keyboardist of black metal group Nokturnal Mortum, and Wortheaux, the guitarist of Finist, collaborated on the record. The mastering took place in Buddha Cat Studio in Moscow. It was released in April 2005 via Oriana Music. In autumn 2005, Nort, a former member of Nagual, joined Khors. Afterwards, Khors performed their first concerts.
