The neo-industrial-black metal project Axis of Perdition arose through the ashes of a youthful music group called Minethorn on the dawn from the 21st Hundred years in Northern Britain.

Michael Blenkarn, guitars, keyboards and development) attempt to convey the bleakest post-apocalyptic eyesight of metropolitan decadence and decay imaginable using their 2003 debut The Ichneumon Technique (And Much less Welcome Methods).
