Formed in 2002 by Guitarist and principle songwriter Lord Mysterion and drummer Odhinnskriger, Mysteriarch wasted little time establishing a powerful and unique style of symphonic black metal. Drawing inspiration from the occult, as well as humanity's mystery traditions and the hidden aspects of existence, Mysteriarch quickly became a staple of the underground metal scene of their hometown of Charlotte, N.C., and by extension the burgeoning regional metal scene of the southeastern United States. The band released the demo “Renaissance of the Maelstrom” in 2004 to a loyal and enthusiastic fan base, garnering praise and positive reviews among the underground metal community.

After several years of extensive gigging and line-up changes, 2007 heralded the release of the band's full-length debut, “The Majestic Fall” on Ophiucus Records. Further establishing Mysteriarch's reputation among the underground metal elite, the release saw the band fully come into its own artistically as well as ideologically.

With a current line-up dedicated and well-seasoned, Mysteriarch continues to push its sound and live performance, crossing boundaries into realms unknown and expanding the limits of musical expression. Poised to soon record their eagerly awaited second full-length album, Mysteriarch vows to always remain dedicated to the ideology of true underground black metal.
