Limbonic Art

Limbonic Art was a black metal duo consisting of Daemon and
Morpheus, though early versions of the band featured four members
in all.
They played adventurous, symphonic black metal, clearly
rooted in the tradition of
Emperor
and the like, but with greater dynamics and range, featuring
complex arrangements and clear classical music influences to create
a rich, dynamic, yet still inherently black metal style.
During their six-year run between 1997 and 2002 they were
prolific recording-wise, releasing five albums of relatively
uniform style and quality, though not without progression and
maturation on the later material.
In particular, albums such as
The Ultimate Death Worship and
In Abhorrence Dementia place the band in the upper echelon of
prime Norwegian symphonic black metal artists.
They disbanded amicably in February 2003, but reformed in June
2006.
