Watain is a Swedish black metal band, formed in 1998. [1] The band's name is taken from an early recording by the American black metal group Von. [2] [3] [4] The band have become famous for their theistic Satanist views and for their live shows which involve pyrotechnics, candles, Satanic rituals, animal carcasses, and blood.

The band derived its name from a song by Von. Reaping Death, the CD single, which was exclusively distributed in Sweden via Sweden Rock Magazine, was certified gold in the band's home country on April 21st, 2010 by the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry for sales in excess of 10,000 copies.

Characterized by a twisted beauty and primal ecstatic force, Watain is the wolf that keeps on hunting, fearless and free, in the dark night of man. Watain crawled out of Satan's cunt in 1998, and has since then ascended and grown into one of the world's most well known and notorious Black Metal bands.
