Mutiilation is a pioneering French black metal project forged in the early '90s by Meyhna'ch, a key figure in the infamous Les Légions Noires (The Black Legions) underground collective. Known for their raw, lo-fi sound and unapologetically dark themes, Mutiilation became a cult favorite with releases like *Vampires of Black Imperial Blood* (1995), blending blistering guitars, tortured vocals, and a hauntingly atmospheric vibe. Meyhna'ch, often the sole creative force, channeled nihilistic and occult imagery into his work, cementing the band’s status as a foundational act in France’s black metal scene.
After a hiatus in the 2000s, Mutiilation resurged with albums like *Rattenkönig* (2020), proving Meyhna'ch’s enduring grip on the genre’s grim aesthetics. Releases such as *Black Millenium (Grimly Reborn)* and *Destroy Your Life for Satan* showcase his signature mix of melody and madness, while archival collections like *The Lost Tapes* keep the band’s raw early spirit alive. Still shrouded in mystery, Mutiilation remains a defiant beacon for fans of raw, unfiltered black metal.
