Biography

Taken from the band's Myspace page:

Byfrost was founded by HeavyHarms and R.I.Pmeister on a cold and windy Bergen night in 2007. Eager to release cold and dark but melodic riffs they hired a drummer and bassplayer - which formed the first version of Byfrost. The EP - 'Byfrostmetal' - was the result of Heavy and R.I.Pmeisters' excellent songwriting, and recieved great reviews from magazines and webzines from all over the world.

The line-up was reformed in the winter of 2008 as R.I.Pmeister went from rythmguitar to bass, and Alkolust from Bergen deathmetal-act Hellish Outcast joined forces with Byfrost on drums - becoming the third member of this now vile threepiece.

During 2009 Byfrost have been busy writing and recording the debut album, 'Black Earth' in Conclave/Earache Studios, produced by Herbrand Larsen (Enslaved) and Bjørnar E. Nilsen (Vulture Industries), as well as playing concerts in Norway, clubs and festivals, and a mini tour with the Bergen doom metallers Syrach, travelling through Germany, Switzerland and the Netherlands.
