Kristallnacht

Kristallnacht was a French black metal project formed from earlier bands (Pure Desecration, Funeral) led by a figure identified as L.F.; active from 1994, renamed Kristallnacht in late 1996, released several EPs and a compilation (Bloodrenched Memorial), and ceased activity after 2003. The project is documented in DeBaser's review as explicitly aligned with National Socialist ideas and involved in legal controversies.

Founder identified by initials L.F.; origins in French underground black metal (Toulon/Marseille/Paris); lineup and collaborators included members of Blessed In Sin, Seigneur Voland and others; notable releases include demos, miniCDs and the Bloodrenched Memorial compilation; arrests and trials of associated members and the project's dissolution around 2003 are documented in the review.
