Background notes
Archive material and source history
Pillorian formed in Denmark around 2013 with Torben Wendt on vocals and guitar, Martin Bentzen on drums, and Jakob Hansen on bass. They put out a debut EP called 'Awakening into Darkness' in 2015, followed by the full-length album 'The Cleansing' in 2017.
Their sound draws from black metal acts like Burzum, Darkthrone, and Mayhem. Songs like 'By The Light Of a Black Sun' and 'A Stygian Pyre' show their approach: melodic but raw, with lyrics that lean toward nihilism and misanthropy.
They've faced some lineup shifts and financial pressure early on, and their thematic choices have drawn both fans and critics. The band has kept at it with the same three members, sticking to a vision that doesn't soften the edges.
