From the Ruins of the band Baal Gadrial, In the year of our Master 2003, Azgorh created the dark art known as Drowning the Light, which unleashed its first rituals, 4 tapes, Shrouded in misery and mystery, extremely limited and given out only to close allies.

2004 saw the birth of the first full length album "Drowned", filled with keys and epic sorrow this also was only given out to a select few.

On the eve of 05/06/06 a small gathering/ritual was held in the forest ontop of what is known as the "occult mountain", when midnight struck to break in 06/06/06 Drowning the Light played their first show, with session members Tortured Soul on Drums and Nightwolf on Guitar. Then on the same date at 4am in dedication to HIM a 7" was written and recorded, before the Morning Star rose, before Lucifer lit that morn.
Late 2006 3 of the 4 demos and the full length "Drowned" were released on a double cd through Goatowarex entitled "The Fallen Years".

During 2006 3 other albums were completed "A World Long Dead" & "To The End Of Time" (with guest vocals from Gamol & Scorpios), both to be released in 2007 and "the masters empire" which is to be a split CD with Sabnack in Asgard Musik's 9cd 9year box set limited to 99 due out in early 07.
In December 2006 Drowning the Light played its second Ritual on the island of Tasmania.

Early 2007 new material has been written and recorded "Of Celtic Blood and Satanic Pride".

Drowning the Light played the "Recrucify the Bastard" festival on easter weekend 2007, The use of dead ravens and other assorted rotting beasts were scattered throughout the ritual chamber and the stench of death overwelmed alot of people who were forced to leave due to it.

Drowning the Light has started more sonic rituals as the winter months of this southern land are upon us (2007), these include a new full length (The Serpents Reign) and split material with Heldentod and Arkha Sva as well as a future split with dark ambient band Old Oak.Source : http://www.myspace.com/drowningthelight
