Background notes

Archive material and source history

XIV Dark Centuries formed in Germany and released their first album, 'In Times of Eternal War,' in 2004. They followed it with 'Age of Iron' in 2006 and 'Thee Omega Monolith' in 2009. Their music combines harsh vocals and atmospheric synths with historical themes, as heard in songs like 'Ahnenland' and 'Auf Zur Schlacht.'

XIV Dark Centuries denied this, saying they were exploring history artistically rather than making statements. The lineup has included founding members Tom Scythe on vocals, Lord Ordo Draconis on guitar, and Lord Phylactery on drums, with other musicians rotating through.

Later albums include 'Netherworlds' from 2017 and 'The Blackest' in 2022. Their sound remains rooted in black metal with historical overtones, evident in tracks such as 'Bardensang - Balderes Wolon' and 'Des Kriegers Traum.'
