THOR'S HAMMER is the project of Capricornus, famed for his drum work in both Graveland and Infernum, as well as his label, CAPRICORNUS PRODUCTION. This music differs dramatically from that seen in GRAVELAND and his other solo project, CAPRICORNUS, by taking on a Possessed-like style. By doing this, his music becomes a kind of black-death metal, as opposed to the black-thrash style played my many of the worthless black metal bands in the scene today. THOR' S HAMMER was raised in 1997 by Capricornus himself with the little help of guitarist Boleslaw who is still playing with the band.

The band's demo, "Nothing But Hate", was released by Darken on EASTCLAN PRODUCTION. THOR' S HAMMER has since signed to Darker Than Black and in 1998 released their debut full-length studio album entitled "Fidelity Shall Triumph". One of the band's demo tracks was also featured on "The Night and The Fog" compilation released in early 1999 by DUNGEONS OF DARKNESS. The second album, "May the Hammer Smash the Cross", as well as a split cassette with DARK FURY (including 2 songs taken from mentioned album) are being released in 2000, along with a reissue of the debut.

This year the band has recorded brand new songs for the 3rd album entitled "The Fate Worse Than Death" for NO COLOURS REC. With new members: Raborym (guitar) and Diathyrron (drums) THOR'S HAMMER returns to Black Metal roots and changes the style into raw Horned Metal to glorify the spirit of the scene from early 90's....
