Graveland "Necromanteion"

Graveland are a Polish pagan metal band which was formed in 1992 by Rob Darken (born Robert Fudali). It began as a black metal band, before adopting a pagan and Viking metal style. The lyrics and imagery of Graveland are strongly inspired by European mythology, nature, winter and war. Their early work focused on Celtic and Slavic mythology, while their later work focuses on Norse mythology and Wotanism.

Darken, who started Graveland as a solo project in 1992, was influenced by bands such as Bathory and Emperor. He recorded the first demos, Necromanteion and Drunemeton, working alone.

Necromanteion was a site that was believed to be the door to Hades, the realm of the dead. It means oracle of the death. People would go there to talk with their late ancestors.

Original tapes directly from Rob Darken had his stamp on the blank back side of the insert.
