Sounds Like
Reality collapsing. Someone screaming at you from an attack helicopter speeding over the remotest part of Greenland. Four blokes playing guitars, bass and drums fast, with screaming. A tornado blasting through and destroying your house. Proper Metal.

Formed in 2001 in Letchworth, Hertfordshire, UK, Niroth were formed for one purpose: Making real Black Metal, and to try and gain a bit more respect for UKBM, the image of which has been somewhat of a joke due to the weakness of the obvious culprits.
Niroth has played shows with bands of all genres, from Electronic acts to bands such as Primordial, Enthroned and Demoncy, showing a respect for many styles but without the need to integrate them and water-down the music, instead choosing to translate influences from a vast spectrum of sources into bleak, violent Black Metal.
Among the comments made to the band after gigs are "Motherfucker, my fucking ears", "I cant hear properly any more", "Sorry I had to leave, it was too loud" and "Where's all the beer gone?" .After all, All Men Play On Ten. The band do not feel the need to adopt a typical BM 'uniform' all the time (if you cant hear that its Black Metal, you're deaf or an idiot) and make no apologies for having a sense of humour; as people - but that said, we are deadly serious about the music we make, and we are not about to become the next Lawnmower Deth just because we don't spend all day frowning and having no friends.
Niroth play local and national gigs (when possible), although gigging and recording is sporadic due to various constraints - do not be put off approaching us with gig offers, we will attempt to play wherever/whenever possible. Almost all activity is handled by the band.. If you would like to contact the band, send a message here or use the link on the main website, niroth.da.ru.
Oh, we also have more than one genre in our record collections, and at least one of us once wore something that wasn't black. After all, the way to become a great band is a one-dimensional palate of reference, having the 'right' hair and clothes (please check carefully with all peers for exactly what the latest rules are - you wouldn't want to be different would you?), and not having enough belief in your own music to spend more than 10 pence recording it.
How and the hell is Niroth doing these days? Yes, had to ask and hope that all is well in your Hell? So tell me...are there going to be new tracks or what? The reason why I am asking you this is because I think that " In casgastical Triumph" Is one of your most memorable tracks to me. It kills and if I heard that track some where else...I would know that it was your song! KILLS! So have a Killer week and would be honored hearing more from you DEMON! Val's Hell! :)
its been along time since ive just sat and listened to you guys! its breath taking... will you's please come back to sunderland and play again. the gig at the voodoo rooms was one of the best gigs ive seen.
