Iskandr

Iskandr is a Dutch black metal project whose music is characterized by an atmospheric and raw edge, intertwined with themes that often draw on history, nature, and spirituality. The brainchild of multi-instrumentalist O, who also operates under the moniker 'Oaken Throne', Iskandr's sound is a distinct blend of traditional black metal elements with an introspective, and sometimes epic, approach to composition and thematics.

With releases such as "Euprosopon" and "Vergezicht," Iskandr has carved out a niche within the underground black metal scene, offering compositions that are both aggressive and contemplative. The project's focus on creating immersive soundscapes is evident in tracks like "Hoor het Smeken" and "Gelderse Poort," which are palpably evocative and rich in texture. The raw production and folk-inspired undertones present in much of their discography, including the release "Spiritus Sylvestris," craft a sense of timelessness and connection to the natural and mystical world that Iskandr finds inspiration in. The work often resonates with fans who appreciate the fusion of rugged black metal tonality with more expansive and atmospheric dynamics.
