Valhalla

Black metal band from Yekaterinburg, Russia. In the winter of 1996, Heroine and Zlav, inspired by black metal, created the Valhalla project. Active rehearsals and the creation of the first works began. Along the way, the search for a guitarist was conducted. In June 1996 the guys met Volgast and Nickola (guitar and bass). Subsequent meetings at the rehearsal room resulted in a desire to play together. By the end of 1996, Schur (vocals) joined the band. Active rehearsals continue, and on May 31, 1997, the band's debut took place at the Sphinx rock club. By the end of 1997, Nikolai leaves the gang (without commenting on his act). After the next performance, Satt '121' Podonok gets acquainted with the band… and he agreed to the offer to try to play together without hesitation. Joint performances and rehearsals are held. By the end of 1998, Mor Dagnir (bass) joined the Valhalla band. At that time, there was the last and final lineup of six members. In addition to Valhalla, the team formed along the way new projects of almost each of the participants, where the same faces of the Valhalla team were used as session musicians. Veleentor, Warhhorn, Nuclear Winter and some others were formed. In 1999 the demo "Wolf Nocturne" was recorded. In 2000, the album "Zimovyrodok" was issued, which was subsequently released by the Finnish label Northen Sound Rec. After the last concert in June 2000, disagreements begin in the group. Schur leaves the underground, a little later Heroine and Volgast announce their departure from the line-up. This turned out to be a split in the team as a whole.
