Band information
Agatus was originally from Greece but was located in Adelaide from the mid-90s until 2005. The band performs haunting and atmospheric, raw black metal with medieval overtones. They were in fact performing this style even before the like of Satyricon. A demo was released in 1993 before the 1994 full length album Dawn of Martyrdom was released on Hypervorea Records, later bootlegged by No Colours. Over the years they have played a minimal amount of shows in Melbourne and Adelaide but have maintained a cult status in the underground scene worldwide.
Agatus moved to Daun, Germany in 2005.
