Welcome to the third and final part of the interview with Mika of Ofermod. Here we go...

UG: Are some of the lyrics on the new album “Drakosophia” also dealing with your work and your experiences with Belial, similar to those on "Mysterium Iniquitatis"? 

B: Actually, the main lyric focusing on Belial on the album is Thomas Karlsson's lyric "Belialistic Bravado Codex" to which I have come up with merely the title, and the song "Drakosophia" deals a bit with my own experiences with Belial as the central guiding entity in the process and journey of attaining the opening of Lord Lucifer's Eye.

 

UG: You had your first contact with Belial at the age of 18 and over time it developed into a close co-operation. But at what point did you realise that he is your patron deity and what do you think is the reason that he rather than another entity became your constant companion? 

What does it mean for you and for the band that Belial is Ofermod's guardian demon?

B: Yes, during ceremonial work when I was 18 I was presented to Him. It was when we released the "Tiamtu" album that it became clear to me that He is the guardian entity of Ofermod and my own personal guiding spirit. With His help I have overcome personal difficulties, which I won't discuss in public as they are as stated personal, and been able to leave mental blockages behind me as if He had redeemed me from other demons that held me captive in a restricting state of being where I couldn't achieve certain personal goals of mine because my mind felt like trapped to certain behaviour. With His help I had to no longer be caught up in these affairs that restricted my entire personality as well as my spiritual work, so He has indeed been like a sacred baptist entity through whose help I have been given my full range of freedom to act according to both my wishes and my Will.

UG: According to "Qabalah, Qliphoth and Goetic Magic", Belial is connected to the dark side of the sun, as well as to the Qlipha Thagirion, in addition to the otherwise more well-known classifications. In the lyrics of Ofermod, Belial as well as the different aspects of Thagirion and Sorath have been an important topic for years. 

Why are you fascinated by this Qlipha and the principles it stands for?

B: Belial is a spirit that is present on the entire Etz ha-Daath, and beyond in the form of the middle one of the Three Negative Veils of the Nightside, Ithiel, Belial and Qemetiel which are the counterparts to Ain Sof Aur, Ain Sof and Ain in the grand scheme of existence and subsistence of both the side that spawned Yahweh and the Metagod Havayoth. 

Belial is in the Goetia the 68'th spirit and second only to Lucifer in his ranking as an infernal King of the regions of Hell, but in the formlesss form of the second Negative Veil he is omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent etc on the Tree of Knowledge which He governs over with His thousands of mistresses of infernal delight, and is not just based on ruling the Qlipha Thagirion but is the Scorpion God who climbs up and down the entire Nightside existence to those who are in need of His assistance. He is the unholy baptist for anyone who is in the process of opening the Eye of Lucifer/Shiva and thus destroy the universe into millions of fragments, reaps the cloak of Maya into shreds as the Redeemer from illusions He is, and for each of His children He has a personal way of appearing, just like Eheieh Asher Eheieh appeared to Mosche as a burning bush, to me Belial has for instance appeared as a high voltage electric explosion close to my face while I was writing His words down on paper with automatic script. 

On the other hand, my fascination with the Qlipha Thagirion is obvious from my previous releases, and the reason for this is that it is the Qlipha of Black Solar Consciousness, the Antichrist level of experiencing existence and the centremost qliphotic sphere on the Etz ha-Maveth and thus the halfway Mark (of the Beast 666) on one's journey to attaining mastery over the Nightside Map of existence, it is the Shell of the Son of Havayoth, but at the same time as Primordial as the Chaos Giant Surt (Sorath) in the Nordic Pantheon of gods and un-gods, it is the state of being where you encounter your Daemon and become One with it on your continuing journey towards apotheosis beyond the sphere of Thaumiel at the root of the Tree of Night. I hope this explains my view upon the various entities and principles that your question was about instead of confusing you more than enlighten, but on the other hand, the qliphotic labyrinthine underworld is a place of confusion and disharmony, so either way I have achieved my task haha!

 

 

UG: Over the years, you have used Belfagor and Michayah as your artistic names. 

It's interesting to note that the name "Belfagor" also has a strong reference to Thagirion as a Qlipha of central significance to many LHP Currents.

But what was your motivation for using these two pseudonyms and finally deciding in favour of "Belfagor"?

B: Belfagor is the ruling demon of Thagirion in the system of Dragon Rouge, and Michael on the Sephirothic side of the Tree, and I have called myself Belfagor since 1993 as my artistic name, other than during the few years when I called myself Michayah, He who is like unto Yah, or A Likeness to Yah, Yah being the God Name that rules over the Sephirah of the Will, Chokmah, of the Magus, but I used it as a mockery against the angel Michael (in other systems Tiphareth is ruled by Raphael, the Healer of El, which I tend to place him at nowadays as well instead of Michael, who is placed in Hod, having Samael Qlipha as his counterpart, ruled by the Peacock angel Melek Taus) which I put in the Sephirah of Tiphareth in my younger years, and at the same time taking photo sessions of myself wearing a crown of thorns, mocking the Christian Messiah figure also at the same time. 

It didn't take many years until I started calling myself Belfagor again, seeing that when ever I was mentioned by other artists, like Erik of Watain, in public they always referred to me as Belfagor. I had simply achieved more of value under this pseudonym than under the pseudonym Michayah. There was a time, I think it was on "Tiamtu" that I called myself Michayah Belfagor, utilizing both of the pseudonyms for Ofermod, but after that I saw no value in the name Michayah anymore as it had served its purpose as a blasphemous mockery of Yah and the God of the Old Testament, which is a tyrannical egocentric man-made entity mimicking older religious writings such as the Enuma Elish and the Emerald Tablets of Thoth, the Atlantean benevolent teacher of the mystery schools of ancient times, a tradition to which Yeshua the Anointed Prophet King of Jews and gentiles alike was learned in, as well as being initiated in the mystery traditions of Tibet and India, as well as the Kingdom of Khemet, from which the Bible says that God called his child back to Jerusalem, where they staged his crucifixion so that he could see to it that his bloodline had a good chance of living on as the Merovingian bloodline of the red haired kings whose powers were said to be divine of origin, but they were simply initiated into the mysteries of age old adepts who were descendants of the Dragon worshipers of Atlantis, the sunken continent of the Red Dragon. 

UG: Cooperation with entities of Sitra Ahra can take place on higher spiritual levels than the initiatory grade an adept has attained within an occult/LHP Order. So this is not a question about initiatory degrees, but about the level of connection and communication with entities of the Night Side. 

Is your connection and work with Belial in any way related to the Thagirion level? 

B: Wherever I am on the scale, Belial is there with me, watching and guiding me on my initiatory process. I can reveal one thing, and that is that I was introduced to methods far above my official initiatory level from the very start of my initiatory process, which sometimes left me burned, or like going up against Mike Tyson in his prime with myself being a beginner at boxing, but the higher adepts found a liking to me from the start, and saw how much work and effort I put into my initiatory work, so they guided me through processes meant for adepts far beyond my grade, but then again I had 11 years of experience with ceremonial magick and meditation techniques of various kinds, so all that I needed was a master, and three masters came when this student was ready, overwhelming me with the power of the draconian current.

UG: Besides the Mother Temple in Stockholm, you have certainly also worked magically in other official temples of the Dragon Rouge as well as in private ritual chambers. 

Did you experience any remarkable, extraordinary or weird incidents there worth mentioning? 

B: In the Uppsala Ritual Group's temple room which was in an ordinary apartment, I encountered the Guardian of the Temple, which was an astral form of a man of African origin, which even the adepts who knew of his presence thought was strange because none of them had practiced magic of African origin in the Temple, and I also got to see and work in magnificent Temple rooms that my mentors had raised in their apartments, devoting much effort to making these Temples the Hearts of their homes. 

The mansion, an old priest's mansion from the 1800's in the middle of the wilderness of the country side, that was the home of Tommie Eriksson, the author of the book Mörk Magi (Dark Magic) had several different rooms for specific purposes within the draconian tradition. The building on his yard was originally a guest house, but he had turned the attic into a rehearsing place and studio for his main musical project Saturnalia Temple, one of the darkest bands in the world according to me, and it was like a temple room at the same time where we got intoxicated, him and I plus one more adept of the Order, and miraculous phenomena occurred during that night of unstructured magical work, done at the whim of the drunken and cannabis intoxicated magicians gathered in this power place of the draconian current. 

On his backyard there was a big cave which he had turned into a temple, in which a large crowd gathered for group working, which was more structured than the chaotic psychodrama in the attic, but full of force in another way and we were more careful to close with the raising of the Dragon Fire through the chakras etc instead of just showing off with what a seasoned Magus could summon forth by just using will power, like was done in the studio where we rehearsed for the one and only gig I did with Saturnalia Temple as their live drummer because at the same period in time I befriended Niklas Kvarforth of Shining and he helped me to get a deal with Spinefarm Records and a hell of a lot of cash which I carried home from Finland in my backpack, but the unfortunate thing was that I had an appointment in Helsinki at the same time as Saturnalia Temple performed in Germany, and this was a deal I couldn't afford to let run through my fingers, but had to take the opportunity when offered. It was for the album "Thaumiel" and I searched for all kinds of ritual objects that I wanted to use during the recording. I will never forget when I asked Erik Danielsson if he had any dead chakras and he looked at me suspiciously and said "I certainly do Not!". I was of course meaning among his collection of bones but he thought that I meant him personally haha!

UG: Within the initiatory system of the Dragon Rouge there are different levels of contemplation and dealing with entities such as demons or gods. In the beginning, there is a psychological and intellectual approach, which then develops into something comparable to demonolatry. 

Does your relationship with the entities you are in contact with correspond to this level or does it go beyond it? 

B: Keeping in mind the words of dear old Timo Ketola, I can still reveal that my contact with the entities that I work with transcends my official level of initiation. Brother Thomas Karlsson and I have also cooperated with working with the same entity with the same goal in mind separately from our own personal temples, a collaboration that has shown to be successful in several ways. I will not reveal what entity and for what end we decided to cooperate magically in this way, but it shows you how some of us in the same circle of the draconian tradition work with a common goal in mind but when time and distance is a hindering obstacle, we work with each other from a distance. Others too from the same circle of individuals have taken part of ceremonial work with me in various ways and with various esoteric methods to reach different goals in synchronicity with the work of each other, and the ones I work with in this manner are so far gone on the path of Night that what they Will manifests in Malkuth as in the higher realms where the magic is born as a thought-form and empowered with the help of emotional bhakti, coming into earthly being through the grace of Naamah and then into the cosmic, mundane part of our psyches fused together for a common cause, being the reason for a specific magical working, be it to gain atzilutic influence or as a lamp turned on to guide one or several participants of the operation in their initiatory process, be it official DR based initiation or personal initiatory work and achievement. These two seldom are one and the same with long time practitioners of the draconian current. 

I have been involved with the draconian current since 2008 is what I counted it to the other day when remembering my first steps in this tradition, and I think that I have more in my backpack than the so called fast-food adepts who have as a goal to finish every Magical Course within the minimum time that is required to use for one's journey to be accepted by the senior adepts as a guideline for how much time one should put into one's initiatory work. What most idiots, McAdepts with Meal, don't understand that when they claim to have finished the grade they work with within the minimum time frame, it most often means that these people have poor judgement and don't have what it takes to stay committed to the draconian path, or the Left Hand Path in general. Maybe there are so called internet based Orders that accept this hurry to the finish line mentality and behaviour, but the serious Orders out there see through the bullshit from a mile's distance.

 

UG: What are your views on Goetic magic and specifically the Goetia? From a demonolatry point of view in particular, these writings are no longer considered up-to-date. They are based on biased and oversimplified representations of entities, some of whose names are no more than a corruption of their original titles/denotation.

There are practitioners who have made the experience that some of these entities are corrupted fragments of older and more powerful Gods. 

What are your experiences with the entities described in the Goetia? 

B: Let's see now, now that I made myself intoxicated with ketamine right away when waking up to spice things up a bit haha! I see upon the traditional Goetic workings as a not well thought out plan for the magician, who would with his "rod of power" torture the demon to obedience, using holy names to further cause injury and to protect himself from the entity being worked with. I don't see this as a cooperation as it should be, instead I see small ingsignificant humans trying to play god for entities much more powerful than they themselves are and ever will be. When you contact a demon, he has already anticipated your invocation, because these spirits do not live under the same law of time as we humans. They have set the bait out to establish a contact with someone they see fit for the task. So if you think that you are running the show, think twice, because you, as a magician, are as valuable for the entity as the entity is for your wishes and whims. Somewhere along the line a connection has been made between you two and it is almost always beneficial to the both of you. 

Don't you go lifting your magic wand in the belief that it will have any effect on the spirits in the Goetia, least of all to harm them and force them into submission, because then you have chosen the wrong kind of forces to fuck around with, and that kind of machismo attitude will leave you soulless and as an empty shell of a man , because as you said, these entities are so powerful and ancient that they will suck your very soul dry if You do not do as They ask of you! 

Ofermod having for instance Belial as our patron deity is not a mere coincidence. I was contacted by Him during ritual work in the Order where I had the role of High Priest during the years that OTG was active, and I established a friendship with my Father figure in the spirit world, so He was doing my biddings as long as I was doing His biddings. The synchronicity of Marduk coming out with a song entitled "Souls for Belial" as I was myself going through all of this spiritually and on a serious level including the Seal of Belial in every item that had to do with Ofermod, because we were and still are His vessel of gospel (or Belial Spell would be more appropriate) of the ancient war in heaven and letting him tell his story through us, about how he once was of a nobler origin than Gabriel, Michael and so forth, before he followed His leader down to Hell and to influence the humankind, be they aware of it or not. I am the few lucky ones whom He considers as his children. I was given a message once by the powerful Witch Niundi, where she had automatically written down guidelines for me from Belial, and that he had acted in a way like a protective parent does with His child. 

The message said something along the lines of "Don't you join forces with Koetting and his kind. People will kneel before you when you walk by as they will recognize your true Worth. Sit at the table with the gods and live your life accordingly" and I stopped my aspiration to get in touch with E.A. Koetting in that very instance, as I had wanted to speak with him about similar experiences we both had had, but Belial told me through this utterly serious Witch that he was a charlatan and not to be trusted on spiritual affairs. And what exactly is this movement "Become A Living God"!? It's arrogance of the highest sort to think that you are on the same level as the ancient entities that are presented in the book of Goetia.

 

UG: Have your theoretical occult studies and the practice of certain techniques (such as meditation, intonation, energy work, etc.) changed your approach to music or your perception / understanding of music over the years? 

As a musician and initiated practitioner of the Dark Arts, could you describe what music is from your point of view and to what extent you use it to achieve more than just evoking certain feelings? 

B: For me there is no difference between Black Metal and black magic, in service of the Devil and the Great Dragon. Black Metal is just another channel through which my magic comes forth, and is of a negative nature for those who are not worthy of taking part of the sonic sorcery that our music is but empowering to the worthy few. A lady with her boyfriend came up to our former vocalist Johannes Kvarnbrink at a gig in Holland and she told him that she had reached sexual climax, had an orgasm simply put, during the time that we stood on stage and performed our magic, and that sort of appreciation is what I like the most from those who are in our audience. This is far from being a means of entertainment, but the Great Dragon's love spread through musical manifestation to all those who feel more at home in the Nightside of creation than on the side of the Demiurge YHWH, who broke out from the Primordial Void of Chaos with no permission to do so, thus was created the Nightside of the All in which all those entities that repressed old religions have given to, to the Sitra Ahra, instead of them being lost in oblivion. 

Not all things in Sitra Ahra are evil in nature, but they have been demonized by the younger, conquering civilisations that are raised in the dust and ashes of the old ones. Everything is kept alive in the akashick memory of the world soul and through it one can also find a worm-hole into the Sitra de-Smola where the ancient gods and goddesses dwell and feast upon the sacrificial offerings of men and women like me and you, who know where the True power over the Kingdom of Malkuth lies. 

But let's sum things up for now by stating that Orthodox Black Metal is far more spiritually potent than old Christian pilgrim songs like on the record "The Black Madonna" which I love and have taken inspiration from to my own art, but it lacks the true Holy Spirit of Chaos, which is our God and Master in saecula saeculorum.

 

UG: At the end of the 90s you defined the term "Orthodox Black Metal" (not only referring to the music of Ofermod) and thus also established a whole movement within the BM scene. A few years later, however, you decided to describe Ofermod's music as ‘Orthodox Religious Death Metal’ to distinguish it from certain BM bands.

Nowadays, numerous bands identify themselves as "Occult BM", which deal with systems and paradigms of the LHP and at the same time emphasise that they aren’t Satanists. For those who are not familiar with occultism and the LHP ideologies it is therefore often hardly possible to differentiate between Orthodox and Occult BM.

What is your opinion on this? Do you see a difference between Occult and Orthodox BM? 

B: The word Orthodox is really not necessary, if we would have an ideal scene for this genre of music, because the title Black Metal already tells the listener that he/she is taking part of something that is bound to theistic satanism. I use the term Orthodox just to make it ultra clear to leave no doubt in the minds of our fans that what they get is the Devil's music, a sort of sonic sorcery of the Nightside, that will empower them in their spiritual foundation, as every little detail of our art has been scrutinized and contemplated upon with rigorous care to make our Metal as potent a manifestation as possible of the infernal gods and goddesses who are our guides in life and in astral travel as well as in the afterlife, mean it that we are ascending to a higher level of being or are born again on earth to continue our Great Work. Occult Black Metal has to have a foundation in Devil worship to be Black Metal, or otherwise it's just Occult Metal. 

I chose to use the phrase Orthodox Death Metal for a little while because everyone I met who called himself a satanist got on my nerves with the lack of knowledge and insight into what satanism is in its very essence, so I wanted nothing to do with that movement of morons pretending to be satanists. But a couple of years later I came to my senses and realized that if someone is supposed to change the way by which they present themselves, it's not as hell gonna be me, the godfather of Orthodox Black Metal, but the pretenders were going to have to find a new way of describing themselves and their music if they happened to be artists, because I will not bend my back and kiss another man's boots on my own territory. 

We are the countenance of BM, Orthodox Black Metal to be more precise, and that is something that we are proud of, and we have acted with violence against people in our audience who don't know how to behave during a sacred ceremony in honor of the ancient entities of evil and darkness that we worship, just to let the rest of the audience know that they are taking part of something utterly serious and holy for us, even if the forces we contact are deemed as unholy in the religious dogmas of the world. We bow to no man, but to the ancient Great Dragon of Chaos and its Devils who rule the Nightside realms from which we originate.haos, which is our God and Master in saecula saeculorum.

 

 UG: The Dragon Rouge Temple in Stockholm was visited by Jon Nödtveidt and Vlad (Frater Nemidial) in the first half of the 1990s and, as you have already mentioned, fundamental concepts of the magical system of the Dragon Rouge were later integrated into the Chaos Gnostic ideology of the MLO. 

These include the Kabbalistic concept of the "thoughtless light" (she-ein bo mahshavah), as well as the "thoughtful light" (she-yesh bo mahshavah).

Nevertheless, BM bands seem to be more often influenced by the Current 218 than the Draconian Current. Do you have any idea what might be the reason for this? Are these musicians perhaps unaware of the connections? 

B: Simply because Dissection was an extreme band in their actions, ranging from murder to ritual suicide, I think that many kids see this as cool in some way and as a testimony of their Trueness so to speak. No, I don't think that the majority of Dissection fans have a clue about the influence that Dragon Rouge had on the philosophy they stood for, but think that it all magically appeared in the prison cells of Jon and his accomplish during the years in prison that they spent. But it all has strong roots in the teachings of Dragon Rouge as someone with some insight into the occult movement of the dark side knows. I like the final album of Dissection a lot. It is sonic sorcery to a high degree, and should be checked out by anyone who is into the mysteries of the Left Hand Path and the draconian tradition. I liked Dissection very much already before the murder took place actually. I even attended a concert they did here in my hometown before the release of their debut album "The Somberlain" in 1993, which brings back nostalgic memories. But there are other bands that are as seriously involved in the satanic and draconian tradition that deserve as much attention as Dissection got for murdering a dude. 

Who hasn't been involved in violent crimes with torture and other methods have made the enemy surrender eventually? That was my lifestyle for many years, but nowadays I focus on creating the most qualitative Orthodox Black Metal as I possibly can, implementing magical operations into my art to make it more genuine than your average so called Black Metal band is these days.

 UG: Occult and LHP currents are usually bounded to a specific reality models/paradigms - except for the IOT and other chaos-magical (not chaos-gnostic) orders, which are known to have paradigm shifts as a basis of their magical work. However, many LHP Currents share the idea that our reality is an illusion, in some cases comparable to the Hindu concept of Maya.

But what do you think is the full scale of this illusion - does it only affect our perception of the material world or does it also refer to all the concepts and even experiences regarding other planes or realms?

Do you believe that there is an objective reality, a universal truth that can be understood and experienced by a human mind - or are we basically dealing with models of reality, simplifications and metaphors?

Have you ever questioned whether the tree of life and the tree of knowledge might also be mere models of a highly complex reality that we can only describe in a very simplified and therefore distorted way - and thus create another illusion?

B: Our common as well as individual Great Work is to violently rip apart the cloak of Maya and thus unveil the naked Truth that remains when the Eye of Lucifer/Shiva has been opened for the lone adept as for the Left Hand Path movement as a whole. I have learned not to let the differences between various LHP Orders define my perception of reality as stripped from all that makes us human, but to take what is useful from different dark magical traditions and create one system of all useful systems around the world.

...All the mystical emanations on the Tree of Life and the Tree of Knowledge are just pieces of man made maps over the cosmos and the qliphoth drawn down due to subjective experience of the spirit worlds, but they are at the same time as objective as anything in creation. The paths between the Sephiroth and the caverns of Choronzon are subjective experiences of the maps over Cosmos and Chaos while the Sephiroth and the qliphoth themselves are more in the line of being objective reality, but so are the different planes on Yggdrasil, the Nordic Tree of Life and other esoteric maps drawn to represent the Chaos and the Cosmos for many centuries ago. 

I have lately been studying Tantra and the Aghori, and for them the qabalistic traditions might not work at all, and the same goes to shamans who descend into the underworld by their own methods to fetch a soul that has gone lost in the spirit worlds, but who am I to say that their teachings and methods are of less value than the qabalistic traditions, just because I myself happen to use the qabalistic terminology in my work with the other dimensions that are very distant from Malkuth, but at the same time there are spiritual dimensions that pierce straight through what we call reality, and that is when strange things occur when the two so different levels of existence get too close to each other. 

I think that the unclothing of Maya is something that is experienced in all levels of existence Instead of being just a one man experience. But at the same time there are so powerful magicians that they can destroy the entire cosmos and only he is affected by it, like myself when I have managed to reach the destruction of the cosmos, it has always been there waiting for me to return when I am done with my Work. This is of course a difficult topic to ponder over, as it takes more than one braincell, and I don't think that I am qualified for such contemplation haha! No, but to be serious for a while and to quote Thomas Karlsson in his lyric "Via Noctis" on our album Thaumiel: "The bird fights its way out of the egg, who will be born must first destroy a world!" which sums my answer up perfectly.

UG:  Which occult or LHP books (besides the already mentioned Qabalah Qliphoth and Goetic Magic by Thomas Karlsson) have had the greatest impact on you and your beliefs - and which would you recommend to someone interested in the LHP?

B: First of all, I would recommend "Nightside of Eden" by Kenneth Grant as THE book to study carefully if the Left Hand Path is your thing. Other books that have meant quite a bit to me are Tommie Eriksson's "Mörk Magi". Other books I can recommend are Michael W Ford's "Bible of the Adversary", "Luciferian Witchcraft", "Goetia of Shadows" and "Beginning Luciferian Magick". Aasenath Mason has written a couple of good books also, like "Grimoire of Tiamat", "Book of Mephisto" and "Chants of Belial". Some of the books by brother Edgar Kerval have left a mark in my soul, like "Lil Az H Az Lil" just to mention one. Also the books by Carlos Castaneda are valuable for the Left Hand Path seeker. And of course all books written by brother Thomas Karlsson. 

Also, there is much valuable material within the Order itself that is not meant for outsider eyes. And for many years ago I was written handwritten tunnel workings by Yiannis Kteis of the Greek temple of which he is Master nowadays. Johannes Kvarnbrink writes also very informative articles about the qliphoth and various qabalistic traditions that is only for initiated eyes only. The three first Magic Courses of Dragon Rouge are invaluable in the topics they handle and with such profound knowledge, as well as secret texts that are not even to be mentioned have enriched my spiritual experiences massively through the years. That's about it what I have to say about literature and authors of the Left Hand Path.

UG: Finally, I would like to thank you very much for taking so much time for this very in-depth interview! 

Is there anything you would like to tell or reveal to the readers?

B: Yes, that Ofermod have a couple of days ago been joined by a North American vocalist whom we call Adeptus in the band. Expect vibratory formulas of a negative nature sounding like Dead of Mayhem did before he blew his brains out. Adeptus and I have been in contact with each other for about a decade and know each other thoroughly when it comes to personal shit as well as initiatory processes. I wouldn't just take in a vocalist in Ofermod if I didn't know that he has the best Black Metal voice in the world, and this I do know about Adeptus. We are currently working on our coming album "Drakosophia" which will be released by Regain Records and Shadow Records as a cooperation as usual. Nine songs of pure Orthodox Black Metal is what you get if you purchase the album, plus the blessing of Belial as he is happy when Ofermod are supported financially by satanic souls and draconian fanatics. 

Thank you dear for probably the most interesting interview that I have received this far! Agios O Belial! Avete Lucifer! Venite Lucifer! The Great Dragon bless and be praised sicut erat in principio et nunc et semper et in saecula saeculorum! 

HDHM!

 

The whole interview was conducted by Belfagor for Ofermod and Aen Vessah for Undergrounded and is part three of a three pieces interview.
