PAZUZU, an ancient Sumerian Demon, worshipped thousands of years before the birth of monotheistic religions, was dreaded for his appearance and ruthlessness. But in time his name became nothing but a legend, echoing from times past.
In early 1994, Silenius Gregor, Richard Lederer (both of Summoning fame) and Ray Wells, re invoked this dark force and created a band by the name of PAZUZU, with the idea to introduce a new type of dark music to the metal scene, and especially Black Metal Genre.
The focus was to be more on atmosphere and ambience, rather than guitars and drums.
These were quite simply replaced by flutes, kettledrums and bagpipes. The fruits of this first collaboration were the demo " The Urilia Text " and the first full length album " And all was silent " on Head not Found.
