Watain

It has since been accompanied by incrementally lauded but generally reliably extreme produces such as for example 2000’s Ritual Macabre live record, 2001’s The Misanthropic Ceremonies divide one with Diabolicum, 2003’s Casus Luciferi LP, 2007’s Sworn towards the Dark, 2010’s Lawless Darkness, and 2013’s The Crazy Hunt.
