Biography
THE ORDER OF THE EBON HAND was formed in Greece in August, 1994 by Merkaal (NOCTERNITY) on vocals / bass and Lorthar on guitars. Their mission was to create orthodox black metal. Lethe (SEPTIC FLESH, THOU ART LORD, HORRIFIED and NECROMANTIA) joined shortly after, handling drums and keyboards. The order was now complete.
The band's first recorded song, The Skull, appeared on the Greek metal compilation Warzone 4, issued by Metal Invader Magazine in 1996. Soon after, Metal Hammer magazine included the song, Stormlords, on Hammer Holocaust 3 that same year. Due to this exposure, the band is offered a recording contract by the Greek record label, Hypervosa Records. 1997 saw the release of the all Greek BATHORY tribute album Hellas Salutes the Vikings through Metal Invader magazine. THE ORDER OF THE EBON HAND's cover of A Fine Day to Die was included on this tribute.
