1349

1349 is a black metal band hailing from a suburb of Oslo, Norway. The group formed in 1997 and comprises several former members of the band Alvheim.

1349 is notable for its well-known drummer, Frost of (amongst other bands) Satyricon. The band's music is purposely similar in style and construction to the Second Wave of Norwegian black metal bands of the early 1990s and does not incorporate synthesisers. As a result 1349 have been compared, often favourably, to the early incarnations of Enslaved, Emperor, Burzum, Gorgoroth, Darkthrone, Immortal, and Mayhem. The band tour on a regular basis; their live shows often begin with fire-breathing. This band is becoming widely popular and respected in the metal underground as they so far have rejected the more commercial style of black metal of bands such as Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth.

The name 1349 was chosen by the band because it is the year the Black Death plague spread to Norway.
