Biography : Lucifugum (UKR)

The official Lucifugum bio doesn't exist, these facts have been taken directly from Lucifugum interviews :

Lucifugum was formed in 1995 in Zhytomyr by poet-composer Khlyst and musicians Bal-a-Myth (guitar, bass) and Faunus (vocals). Faunus has left the band in 2001, and Bal-a-Myth died in his sleep on October 5, 2002. Albums ?Back to chopped down roots? and ?Sociopath : Philosophy Cynicism? were recorded in 2003 by different session musicians, which, however, didn't join the band.

In 2004 Khlyst has moved to another Ukrainian city Mykolayiv (Nikolaev) in order to continue Lucifugum and Propaganda together with local Black Metal activist Elena (Stabaath).

?Vector33? is the first album with Stabaath, where she recorded vocals, guitars, bass and keyboards. All lyrics are written by Khlyst, and music is composed by Stabaath and Khlyst.

The music of Lucifugum was different and changed during the years. The early period can be described as symphonic black metal (1996-2000), later it was black/thrash metal, sometimes with death metal touches (2001-2003), and after 2004 the music of the band has transformed into pure black metal style.

Igor and Elena Naumchuk are the owners of Propaganda (exclusively Black Metal oriented label). They're married.

According to Propaganda web site (details to album "Sublimessiah") Khlyst performs vocals since 2014. The critical problems with Stabaath's throat have stopped her during the record of the vocal. So, there are just 3 tracks (1,3,5) with Stabaath's vocals on "Sublimessiah".
