Ulthar is a potent force in the underground extreme metal scene, characterized by their unique blend of black metal ferocity, death metal complexity, and a touch of the atmosphere distinctive to the darkest sub-genres of metal. Named after the city in H.P. Lovecraft's fictional universe – a fitting choice given their lyrical and thematic predilections towards the otherworldly and the strange – Ulthar cements their presence with a sound that is both aggressive and deeply enigmatic.
Since their formation, Ulthar has cast a grim shadow with a series of compelling releases that speak to the band's relentless drive and innovation. Albums like "Cosmovore," which laid the foundation for their eldritch soundscapes, and the more recent "Providence" showcase the band's evolution in both technical proficiency and their ability to craft atmospheres rich with horror and imagination. Their works, including "Helionomicon" and "Anthronomicon," further demonstrate an ongoing commitment to exploring the abyssal depths of blackened death metal, while releases like "Saccades" and "Astranumeral Octave Chants" suggest a band unafraid to experiment and expand the bounds of their genre. Ulthar continues to surge forward with dark fervor, each release a new chapter in their sinister saga, attracting fans who crave both the intricate and the unfathomable in their metal.
