Khold is a Norwegian Black Metal band formed in 2000 after the split-up of Tulus. The band plays mid-paced and somewhat “groovy” black metal and has a history of touring with bands such as Behemoth and Satyricon.
Unlike many of their Norwegian peers, Khold, or Tulus if you like, never gave up their mother-tongue, performing their lyrics in Norwegian exclusively. The words aren’t written by an actual member of the band, more an affiliate, which in this case is the girlfriend of main-man Gard, Hildr.
The band took a break from 2006 - 2007, due to the reforming of Tulus. With the release of Hundre År Gammal in 2008 the band is back and hits as hard as ever!
History:
Khold is based in Oslo, Norway and was formed by Sarke (drums) and Gard (vocals/guitar). These two musicians came from the band/project Tulus, and Khold was formed because of a desire to be a “real band”, with a steady, complete lineup, and opportunities to play live shows. They recruited two musicians to fit the empty slots: Rinn (also from Sensa Anima, guitar), and Eikind (bass). A demo was recorded, and in late 2000 Khold was signed by Moonfog.
The first Khold album, Masterpiss of Pain was released spring 2001 and critics referred to the album as “a fresh breath upon the black metal scene”. In the fall 2001 Khold went touring in Europe to support their first album.
