Altar of Plagues are best known for their albums White Tomb and Mammal. They have also sold multiple copies of their work on a global scale. Along with Wolves in the Throne Room, Altar of Plagues has supported more mainstream acts on national and international tours as well. They hold many of the same beliefs as Wolves in the Throne Room, as well as similar sounds, lyrical concepts and ideas.
Wolves in the Throne Room is best known for their albums Two Hunters and Celestial Lineage.Īltar of Plagues come from County Cork, Ireland. They have sold multiple copies of their work and are vocal supporters of environmentalism and the Cascadian movement. Wolves in the Throne Room come from Olympia, Washington (also home to members of Fauna and Echtra) and, since their inception, have participated in many national and international tours in support of more mainstream acts. While Fauna and Echtra are considered to be the most extreme bands to carry the Cascadian Black Metal label, the most popular (and commercial) bands of the genre are widely considered to be Wolves in the Throne Room and Altar of Plagues. Finally, the members of Fauna and Echtra also contribute their efforts to other Cascadian projects that are known on a much lesser scale. These bands also treat their performances as "live rituals". These two bands are known for very long songs, featuring repeating motifs and ideas, that derive from concepts mostly involving nature. The members of both bands are virtually the same, although the music created in each project take different directions from the other. Ex-members of Threnos went on to form Fauna and Echtra.
However, the remnants of this band would go on to forge some of the most dedicated and extreme Cascadian Black Metal ever to grace the genre. Since their breakup, the band has never reunited or reissued the demo for commercial consumption. Shortly after the recording of this demo, the band was to split. Despite the few pressings made for personal pleasure and keepsakes, this demo was never pressed and distributed on a wide scale. The band released one demo during their short lifetime titled By Blood and By Earth (2004). The band believed to have ushered in the Cascadian Black Metal genre was called Threnos.
