Orth

Arvas, formerly known as Örth, is a Norwegian black metal band formed in Bergen in 1993 as a one-man project by vocalist and guitarist Vassago Rex (V-Rex). In Summer 1996, Borknagar drummer Grim and Gorgoroth bassist Ares joined the band. They recorded an album in Winter 1996, titled Nocturno Inferno, but it was never released. After Grim committed suicide in 1999, Vassago Rex decided to keep on going as a one-man project, but changed the band's name. He recorded two demos, Countless Souls at Dawn and I Am Thy Grief, and a split album with Hordagaard titled Dawn of Satan/Uncle Satan, which was released by Azermedoth Records. The band's new album Blessed from Below - Ad Sathanas Noctum will be released in 2010 by the same record label.
