Abbath is the moniker and brainchild of Olve Eikemo, a towering figure in the world of black metal. Most recognized for his tenure as the frontman of the influential Norwegian band Immortal, Abbath embarked on a solo career after his departure from the group in 2015. With his iconic corpse paint and unique vocal style that combines menacing growls with a peculiar melodicism, Abbath has become a symbol of the genre's tenacious spirit.

His self-titled debut album "Abbath" in 2016 announced his return to the black metal scene, setting the stage with notable tracks like "Count the Dead". Following this strong start, Abbath's sophomore album, "Outstrider," was released in 2019, further cementing his status as a formidable artist in his own right. The album showcased a blend of blistering riffs and an expansive approach to the genre, with songs such as "Harvest Pyre" and "Calm in Ire (Of Hurricane)" demonstrating his prowess. In 2022, Abbath released "Dread Reaver," a thunderous continuation of his solo work. Through consistent touring and relentless creativity, Abbath continues to push the boundaries of black metal while maintaining reverence for its dark essence.
