Frostwhore[1] was a Norwegian avantgarde black metal band formed in 1992 by Herrenvolk & Birchsteel from Voiebyen, Kristiansand. The duo experimented with disharmonies and noise as a base of their musical expression. The band eventually split up in 1995, but not after recording a demo-tape in 1993, a few tracks in 1994, and one single track in 1995.
The band was considered lost & forgotten for almost 30 years, until Birchsteel cleaned out his garage and re-discovered the music.[2]
Birchsteel first made four tracks available on Youtube[3]in April 2022, and then started the work of digitizing all their music and making it publicly available.[1][4][5]
History[edit]
In February of 1992, composer Herrenvolk and singer/lyricist Birchsteel started Frostwhore. The band would go on to make their own form of noise-ridden black metal and perform a few live-shows. They recorded their untitled demo-tape in 1993, consisting of the songs "Tundra Abortion"[6], "Demonologue"[7] & "Raped by Christ"[8]. In 1994 they recorded a few more songs, but none of these have been released yet. 1995 saw their final recording before the band split up, "Lucifer Bless Us"[9], the only song where Herrenvolk performed the lyrics. Not for a lack of trying, Frostwhore never secured a record deal, and their music eventually faded into obscurity.
