There are two bands under this name; the Blackened Death Metal band from Austria, and the lesser known Black Metal band from The Netherlands. 1. Belphegor emerges as one of the most extreme line ups to ever come out of the blackened death metal scene.
The band members themselves describe their hellride as "Supreme Death / Black Metal Art". Formed in 1993 originally under the name Betrayer, the band became popular in the metal scene, their lyrical themes being gore, blasphemy and satanism. Their first album "The Last Supper" was released by Lethal Records, the two following albums by Last Episode (now known as "Black Attakk") which they called a "rip-off label" afterwards.
After releasing their live album "Infernal Live Orgasm" on their own label Phallelujah Productions, they signed on Napalm Records, but as they said afterwards, this label didn't support them enough and they were "fed up with this respectless treatment". Now the band has signed on Nuclear Blast and released a new album, "Pestapokalypse VI" IN 2006. 2.
