Svart Crown

**Svart Crown** is a French extreme metal force that’s been melting faces since 2004, blending death metal’s brutality with blackened atmospheres and doom’s suffocating weight. Founded by guitarist/vocalist JB Le Bail and drummer Clément Flandrois, the band sharpened its claws in Nice before exploding onto the international scene with albums like *Wolves Among the Ashes* (2020) and their 2023 crusher *Les Terres Brûlées*. Known for tackling themes like existential dread and anti-dogma fury, their sound is a chaotic yet precise storm of riffs, blast beats, and haunting melodies. They’ve shared stages with heavyweights like Behemoth and Mayhem, proving they’re not just studio wizards but live beasts too. Whether you’re here for the apocalyptic vibes of *Transsubstantiation* or the raw energy of *Khimba Rites*, Svart Crown delivers unrelenting darkness with a French extreme-metal flair.
