Arisk Priest.Brief history

The band called Arisk Priest was founded in 2001. Originaly it was a side-project of band called Satanist.
The first record Forest Filosofem was published in 2002 after that the keyboard player Astika joined the band and our music style changed, it became more original and non-trivial, the tones of true black metal fainted step by step. But not only the music changed the idiology modified. The next album Thunders and lightinings Veda got the tones of Indo-European Vedism.
But it wasn't the single instance of varying our music and style but I want to remark one point : yes, we chanched BUT the idialogy was always directed to Arisk Culture.
After that we face with some problems: Ahriman and Astika temporarily hold up their participation in the band for some reasons, that is why the album called Finist Jasniy Sokol (Finist the Brave Falcon) Arisk Priest(Alexander) had to record on his own.
Since that moment the band started to collaborate with consorts and skiffle-groups (The traditional Slavic Ensamble Of The Town Serpukhov; Consort "Spring Voices"; Germanic folk band called "Folksturm", and some others.)
In 2007 the band increased new members: Nasu (vocal), Aleksey Andruhin (vocal,guitar), Miraida (vocal), Ajne (operatic-vocal)
And now are going to record a new album with these people.
