Funeral Mist

[1] The second demo Havoc followed was recorded in summer/autumn 1996, with only Arioch being left of the old line-up, and new drummer Necromorbus (Tore Stjerna).

On 27 August 2015, during Beyond the Gates IV on Bergen, Arioch performed the song "The God Supreme" live for the first time alongside Icelandic black metal band Misþyrming, this was reportedly the only time Arioch will ever perform Funeral Mist material live.

[3] Funeral Mist plays a black metal style characterised by Norma Evangelium Diaboli as violent, chaotic and "musically bizarre", to which Arioch added "complex layers of ill sounds" on Maranatha.

[4] The lyrics deal with devil worship and blasphemy, often using (sometimes slightly changed) quotes from the King James Version of the Bible for the latter.

Arioch points out that "a band that claims to play Black Metal must always have Satanism and nothing but Satanism as the highest priority in their music and concept as well as in their personal lives" and that neither the voice, nor the sound and musical style make a black metal band.
