Watain was formed in 1998 and have since then released three fullength albums; Rabid Death's Curse in 2000, Casus Luciferi in 2003 and now, in february 2007, the highly acclaimed Sworn to the Dark.

The band has embarked on several European tours through their history with bands such as Dissection, Angelcorpse and Celtic Frost. This together with their extensive list of exclusive gigs and festival-appearances has resulted in Watain becoming globally infamous and highly acclaimed for their blood-drenched performances, being ceremonies of radiant madness and the blackest metal fanatism.

Since the release of Sworn to the Dark in early 2007, Watain has been out on their giant "Fuck the World" reaching through Europe, North America, South America and Mexico. The last dates will be held in USA this fall.

Watain performs Black Metal in it's original form; dangerous, passionate, sinister and magical. Drenched in blood, swept in mystery, shunning no sacrifice. You have been warned.
