GURU OF DARKNESS project started during the winter of 2004/2005. Tsade, coming from the first chaotic black era in Sicily, was the vocalist in countless underground bands, like: OPUS IN FLAMES (1997-2001), SECRET DREAM (1999-2002) NAILS OF FAITH (2004-2006). He launched a solo keyboards project in 2001 and he is also involved in movie soundtracks since 2005. In 2011 he started a black metal project, KROWOS. Baron Cimetiere and Davmass were guitar and bass players in the brutal death band HUMANITY ECLIPSE. Enlil was guitar player, keys & sequencer in bands like QUARTERER (1987/1990) & SCHIZO (1990/2005).
GURU OF DARKNESS released a promo in autumn 2005 (20 copies only). In 2006 the band released a self-produced demo-CD titled “Journey To Destiny” limited in 100 copies only for sale. A promo for labels titled “GoD Promo” was released in January 2007. In early 2007 the drummer Asmodeo joined GoD. In 2008, the band shot “Moloch Eyes” video-clip. In 2009 the band released, via Haures Records/Masterpiece, the first full length “Mater Meretrix” including “Moloch Eyes”. In the meantime, some special guests such as Steve Sylvester (DEATH SS), Giuseppe Orlando (NOVEMBRE) & Culto Prietsu (Ex MAYHEM-SHADOW DANCERS) appear in the album. In the same year video-clip “Moloch Eyes” was broadcasted thru the national Italian TV “All Music” and “MTV”. In 2010 GURU OF DARKNESS supported MAYHEM during the 25th anniversary tour in Europe! In October 2010 “Mater Meretrix”, after an encouraging success in Europe, came out in USA/Canada, distributed by MVD Entertainment Group. GURU OF DARKNESS is granted in 2011 by remarkable featuring in “Inferno Rock” Compilation with the smashing classic “Moloch Eyes”. The new album “Ararat” is coming out on November 15th, 2019, via Volcano Records/ Dark Hammer legion. The rest of the (expecially about Tsade’s) tale, is absurd.
