Bio
.. Wormtongue was conceived in 2004 by sole member Nate Adams with what began as a collection of dark acoustic folk songs. The project was later given the moniker Wormtongue, and the album was named "Solitude." After a two year break Wormtongue was brought back to life as a one-man symphonic black metal band. The first EP, "Memorial to a Golden Age," was released in early 2007. It featured a collection of black metal songs with a distinct symphonic sound while still retaining the folk influence of the first album. In mid 2007, another EP entitled "The Solstice Funeral" was released. A full-length album is currently in the works to be released sometime in 2008. .. ..Ohne Musik wäre das Leben ein Irrtum... .... ..Discography:.. .. .. .... .. .. .. .. .."Solitude"....

Sounds Like
“Wormtongue definitely know how to create the right atmosphere with its blastbeat inferno...I would like to hear more of this band.”.. -Vampire Magazine .. "...great atmospheric black metal with folk and classic influences...This man knows quality of his music.".. -Unchained Magazine .. [Wormtongue] successfully creates a symphonic black metal sound while maintaining the trve black metal vibe of low-fi recording...I suspect many black metal purists (particularly those fond of Summoning) will get a kick in the nads from Wormtongue.”.. -Deadtide.com .. “...VERY good, and if the band doesn’t get signed soon, I will be surprised...I can see the band making something as good as Limbonic Art or Emperor in the future.”.. -Lunar Hypnosis Webzine .. “I would never have guessed it was USBM unless I had read it. Some nice early Satyricon guitar thorns spiral away and the melody here is infectiously compelling.”.. -Metal Team UK .. “...the material is already strong, wandering from bursts of speed through discordant midpaced atmospheres and dynamic transitions.”.. -Blodårstid .. “Wormtongue shows some rather adept work and great potential for things to come.”.. -Probably Smug .. “Wormtongue skillfully balances these elements, using keyboards sparingly. They provide warm, grand interludes, like the sun peeking through the clouds. The acoustic parts, too, are pleasingly pastoral.”.. -Invisible Oranges .. “…it’s no surprise to learn that WORMTONGUE hails from...Richmond, Virginia, United States? Okay, maybe we’re a little surprised.”.. -Metal Observer
