Not to end up being confused with Swedish metallic music group Lord Belial, the short-lived dark metal clothing Belial comes from Finland and was formed simply by vocalist/guitarist Sarno Antilla, bassist Jani Lehtosaari, and drummer Reima Kellokoski in 1991. The music group was short-lived, and their function, including the Intelligence of Darkness EP as well as the Gods from the Pit and Aftertaste mini-CDs, was barely important, but after their break up in 1994, all three associates would devote period with Finnish dark metal organization Impaled Nazarene.
