Graven

German black metal group noted in the review as a Teutonic duo led by Vargsang. Released the full-length Perished & Forgotten (2002) after a demo and a split with Barad Dûr; a 2005 release titled The Shadows Eternal Call is also mentioned. Drummer Vronth is noted as remaining in the project.

Besatt's DeBaser review highly praises Graven's 2002 album Perished & Forgotten, highlighting a claustrophobic intro, Darkthrone-inspired riffing, evocative vocals and precise drumming. The review calls the album a standout example of True Norwegian Black Metal in the European underground and strongly recommends it. A quirky production detail — the "CONCAVE CHINA" — is noted as a defining touch.

For:Fans of raw/true Norwegian-style black metal, collectors of underground European black metal, listeners who follow Darkthrone-influenced bands.
