Archgoat had formed in 1989 in Turku, Finland. Their first demo was released in 1992, titled Jesus Spawn. In 1992, Archgoat landed a recording deal with Necropolis Records. In 1993, their MLP, Angelcunt (Tales of Desecration) was released. In 1993, Archgoat entered into a full-time studio deal with Necropolis, but there was a disagreement with terms and the material that was recorded had been kept from the public.[1]
In 1993, Archgoat went on hiatus, feeling that they did not belong in a commercial black metal scene. They returned once again in 2004 with the original lineup, and they released their 1993 material as a 7" EP, titled Angelslaying Black Fucking Metal through Hammer of Hate Records. During that time the original drummer was replaced with Leneth the Unholy Carnager, becoming the permanent drummer for Archgoat. Their show, First Live Black Mass concert was recorded in Finland in 2005. The latest CD, titled The Light-Devouring Darkness was released on February 9th, 2009.
