Imperial Black Ceremony est un one man band français, crée par Vidar. Ce jeune groupe crée en 2008 officie dans le black métal ambient, teintée de mélancolie. Après une démo sortie en 2010 nommée Penumbra, une nouvelle offrande est arrivé en 2012 sous le nom The Better Angels are all Dead. Le groupe tire son épingle du jeu, en créant son propre univers, avec une musique entre désespoir et envoutement.

True Swedish black metal. No keyboards, no acoustic instruments, no clear singing; just blastbeats, growling, tremolopicking and inferior style production.

You will find no guiding lights
you will find no silver linings
but be at peace now
and feel like the trees
grounded and unshakeable

Autumn 2011. Drabbad (Lepra, Suicide) had spent two and a half years institutionalized, after a suicide attempt which ended up with him being clinically dead for several minutes. He was now getting himself ready to face the outside world once again. 
Pessimisten, (Apati, there known as C9H13N) had recently disbanded his former band Apati, as a result of the death by overdose of one of the members. 
The two ended up with starting Ofdrykkja, and just a few months later, The Associate (Death under siege, Suicide) Arkomann and Bödeln joined them. 
Gabrielson (ex-Lifelover, ex-Vanhelga, Eskapi)joined the band on the 30th of April 2015.

The main valuation of Ofdrykkja is to reflect our view of our contemporaries which often can be quite tangled and complex. But we try to be honest with what we do and do not exaggerate or fictitious catch on with the DSBM culture of total negativity. Though we sometimes use extreme expressions (as a kind of visual art or authentic presentations). But those incidents that rarely happens and affects the members of the band are unfortunately parts of our lives.

Musician with eclectic taste.
Solo black metal project.
Vocalist of black metal band Naturvidrig.
