**Necromancy Bio** Originally named R.O.T. (Reek of Terror), Necromancy evolved within the Thrash/Death metal scene in the late 1980s. They were part of the Second Wave of Black Metal, alongside bands that would later be recognized as the fathers of Greek Black Metal. The band originally formed with members who would later play significant roles in its development. In 1989, Necromancy released their debut demo tape titled "Visions of Lunacy." Although the demo showcased the band's potential, their existence was short-lived due to internal disagreements regarding their musical direction. While the band leaned towards Thrash/Death metal, one member preferred a darker, Black metal sound, leading to his departure and the formation of a new project. The rhythm guitarist took over the bass duties after this exit. In 1991, Necromancy entered the studio as a three-piece to record a Mini LP entitled "Ancient Wrath." Unfortunately, this recording, along with many other unreleased songs, never saw the light of day. Tragedy struck in the winter of 1992 when "Living Dead," while serving in the Greek military, suffered a heart attack and died at the age of 20. Following his death, the remaining members, Hades and Unblessed, chose to disband, leaving the "Ancient Wrath" Mini LP unreleased and unheard for over two decades, until its eventual release in 2015.
