Shadows of Sin Are Getting the Metal Out

June 30, 2008




Shadows Of Sin was conceived in 2006 by DamienVonDusk, then known as Count VinterFaust, as an old-school raw black metal project called Frost Throne. Three demos were written and recorded in rapid succession. By the summer of 2006, he wanted to take Frost Throne to the live performance level, including one at Backroads in Beckley and the other at Hellstock ‘06. After these two shows, Frost Throne fell off the radar for a little while. In mid October 2007, the band reconvened. Renewed, the band went through some drastic musical changes. The Count and the band underwent a name change to break away from the cheesy image they were associated with. They decided on Shadows Of Sin, at the advice of the head of Blast Zone entertainment.
