Old Man’s Child was brought to life in Norway back in 1993. But things started to happen a couple of years earlier, back in 1989 to be precise. In that year Galder and Tjodalv started a band that mainly played covers of Metallica and Slayer. Under the name Requiem they released a self titled demo in 1993, which was only printed in 50 copies. The demo was very influenced by the death metal scene that flourished at that moment. In 1993 they changed the name to Old Man's Child! The original line-up consisted of guitarist/vocalist Grusom (Thomas Rune Andersen), guitarist Jardar (Jon Øyvind Andersen) and batterist Tjodalv (Kenneth Åkesson). Their plan was to form a classic death metal band (which they did with earlier mentioned Requiem), but they soon discovered their mutual love for extreme and uncompromising black metal.

they are really good in my opinion, i especially love how thick of a melody they have in all their songs. you can check them out at their website here: Old Mans Child

I like their stuff. It was a pre-curser for me to get into really raw Black Metal such as Mayhem and early Bathory.

I agree with Digital on this one. I think Raw black metal is just senseless noise with no art within. I prefer Symphonic Black, or extreme black metal. Like Divine Symphony or Deborah.

i dont know if i would go as far to say its noise and has no art within, but i think its annoying.

i believe it has some art to it, but it's simply just an aquired taste. not for everyone. i love it, but only at certain times-- i can't just take a whopping dose of raw black metal at any given time. i need to be in the mood.

Ifit's not symphonic, or well produced it's s**t.......pretty much for me........Divine Symphony, Antestor and Frost Like Ashes are some of my favs, along with Dimmu Borgir, Immortal, and Satyricon.
