Purified In Blood

**Purified In Blood** was a Norwegian metalcore/hardcore band that emerged in the early 2000s, known for their raw energy and blistering mix of thrash, punk, and Scandinavian metal influences. Hailing from Stavanger, they carved a niche in the European underground scene with their politically charged lyrics and relentless live performances. Their sound blended gritty aggression with melodic undertones, earning them a dedicated following. Key releases like *Under Black Skies* (2008) and *Reaper of Souls* (2006) solidified their reputation as fierce contributors to the Nordic metal landscape.

The band officially called it quits in 2011 after over a decade of activity, leaving behind a catalog that still resonates with fans of unapologetically heavy music. Tracks like *Under den svarte himmel / Blackwind* and *Flight of a Dying Sun* showcase their knack for balancing brutality with atmosphere. Though inactive, their legacy as pioneers of Norway’s hardcore/metal crossover remains intact.
