March 11, 2010 — While there have been well-known rock/metal bands from Asia such as LOUDNESS and X JAPAN, as well as cult underground bands such as SABBAT, SIGH, and SAD LEGEND, no Asian band has taken the underground by storm quite like Taiwan’s CHTHONIC.
December 14, 2008 — The Asian symphonic black metal band CHTHONIC, who made international headlines by championing Taiwanese democracy from the Ozzfest and Wacken stages last summer, has recently finished recording their new album, Mirror of Retribution, which is a concept album in Los Angeles with producer (and ANTHRAX guitarist) Rob Caggiano.
