Terzij de Horde is a black metal band with dark vitalism as central theme, from Utrecht, NL, formed in 2010. They are known for taking their inspiration from mostly literary and academic sources and intense live performances. Terzij de Horde is old Dutch for “set apart from the horde”. It is a line from the poem “Einde” (ending) by legendary Dutch poet Hendrik Marsman. Marsman is an inspiration to the band,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Quietus - News - LISTEN: Poet-Inspired Black Metal )〕 as are many other authors and philosophers in the same dark, vitalistic vein. ==History== Starting out as Liar Liar Cross On Fire in 2007, the band grew away from its sonic roots in grindcore and crusty hardcore, and toward more dark atmospherics. Throughout their existence, the band has been described as a mix between Khanate, Wolves in the Throne Room, Deathspell Omega and Neil Perry. In April 2010, Terzij de Horde played their first show under that name with Altar of Plagues, Year of No Light and Starve to release their EP “A Rage of Rapture Against the Dying of the Light”. Since then, the band has received widespread international attention and many very positive reviews both of their recorded music and of their explosive live performances. In June 2011, the EP was rereleased on vinyl by Antithetic Records〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Terzij de Horde Band Profile )〕 (Kayo Dot, maudlin of the Well, Young & In The Way). In 2011, Terzij de Horde released a split 12” with fellow countrymen Starve entitled and themed “A Chosen Hollow”, on which Lurker said: “…. Relying less on dissonance and more on moving atmospherics than their debut ever suggested, this is a startling leap forward for a band already ahead of the game. The welding of slow-burning doom and cacophonic black metal returns here, but the hardcore punk assault has been toned down as the band edges closer to their musical ideals. As Alex put it: “There’s nothing more awe-inspiring in life than witnessing a band growing into its own beastly element of relentless, cathartic rage.” 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Terzij de Horde – A Rage of Rapture Against the Dying of Light )〕 2015 saw Terzij de Horde return with their first full-length ´Self´. The album focuses on the problem of self, with each track exploring different ways to live or fail to live with self and world, and the struggles these paths and strategies create: the blindness, suffering, desire for release, for the destruction of self and others, and the turning toward or away from life.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Roadburn / Burning World Recs )〕 Self as prison, self as a source of power, self as vessel for manipulation by outside forces, self as shield and as inner world, self as medium for Dionysian rapture, self as something to be overcome. In the six songs that constitute Self, the rage of black metal is paired with a cathartic destruction as well as a contemplative, sometimes crawling melancholy. Instead of navel gazing or the worship of constructs, Self is analysis forced. A cerebral celebration of liberation at all costs and a requiem for spheres rendered apart. Throughout the years, Terzij de Horde played all over the Netherlands, toured the UK, Ireland and Germany, shared the stage with the likes of Liturgy, Anaal Nathrakh, Bone Awl, Envy and God Dethroned and played festivals like Siege Of Limerick, Incubate Festival, Doom Over Leipzig, Black Metal Desecration and State-X New Forms. Under the name of Footprints in the Void,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Footprints in the Void )〕 the band provides a live platform for doom, black, sludge, noise and drone acts in their home city of Utrecht. Bands involved were, among others, Thou, Aderlating, Alkerdeel, Celeste, Moloch, and upcoming are Conan, Dragged Into Sunlight and Aluk Todolo. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Terzij de Horde」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
