Von is an American black metal band formed in 1987 in O'ahu, Hawaii, and later relocating to San Francisco.

Many people believe the band was formed in late 1990 or early 1991 with the line-up of Goat (guitars, vocals), Kill (bass) and Snake (drums).

Productions released Satanic Blood Angel, a double CD/triple LP compilation featuring the band's demos on one CD and a recording of a live show on another.

Watain and The Devil's Blood opened for the band, marking the first time Von had played live in 20 years.

Goat's departure left Von in the hands of Venien, who hired a slew of session musicians to start writing and rehearsing new and reworked material for two full-length records.

On October 31, 2012, Von, with yet another new lineup headed by Venien, released their debut studio album titled Satanic Blood.

[1] On March 22, 2013, a second full-length album, titled Dark Gods: Seven Billion Slaves, was released on CD and as a download.

[2] Von plays highly simplistic black metal with short songs based on almost continuous blast beats (occasionally accompanied by drum fills) and repetition of only from one to three riffs, each containing only about three or four power chords.
