"Drakonian Elitism" is a very special Opus in the form of a split release,
dedicated to the untold Mysteries of the Draconian Path, consisting of X new
anthems of Orthodox Black Metal Art lasting approximately 53 minutes.
Thus, severing every tie the participants have set until forth, to form a
deified monstrosity of terrors as well as an offering to the Victory of the
Draconian Ways, above, beyond and astride Life and Death, a journey within
theurgy and deification alike begins. HDHM!

BLACK ALTAR BIOGRAPHY
Anno Bastardi 1996
In the darkest abyss of chaos where time and space are impenetrable, Black
Altar came into existence. It took its earthly shape during blasphemous
Sabbath in the Night of Walpurgia Anno Bastardi 1996, when it was summoned by
the voice of Shadow. He, as the first guardian of Black Altar,
have started an unholy crusade, thus awaking fear and pain among the
hypocritical and hideous christian lambs.
1997
The first stroke into their rotten system of values was a demo entitled "Na
Uroczysku..." (On a secret place..) which gained a recognition among several
groups of listeners. It was recorded by Shadow in 1997 at Selani
Studio with the help of Doc (RIP), Vader's drummer, in the role of a
music engineer. Released under Shadow's own label - Odium Rec.,

Altar popular in Poland and in other countries as well.

In September 2003 at Selani Studio Black Altar recorded their debut album

Altar" was mixed and mastered at Studio X. For the track "Fire ov
Immortal Self" a professional video was recorded. In April 2004 the material
is released in the form of CD and a gate-fold LP by the German Christhunt
