Tryblith is a formidable black metal force that emerged from the depths of the Tri-State area in 2009, founded by A. on guitars, J. on drums, and L. on vocals. The trio quickly made their mark on the black metal scene, releasing a series of demos and an EP while performing extensively throughout the region. Their raw energy and dark sound resonated with audiences, establishing them as a rising power in the genre.
After a brief hiatus around 2012/2013, Tryblith reawakened with a renewed lineup. A. returned on guitars, joined by M. on additional guitar duties, L. on vocals, McElfresh on live bass, and D. on drums. This powerful formation led to the creation of their first full-length album, “A New Aeon”, a record that propelled the band to new heights and cemented their place in the black metal scene.
In the tumultuous years of 2020 and 2021, Tryblith evolved once more. U. took over guitar duties, and McElfresh departed, marking another period of transformation for the band. Despite the challenges of the pandemic, this era birthed the hauntingly powerful “Cosmic Serpent””, released on May 28th, 2022. The album showcased the band’s ability to channel chaos into their music, delivering a work that was both intense and evocative.
Undeterred by the shifting landscape, Tryblith continued to push the boundaries of their sound, culminating in the release of their most recent album, “Draconis Maleficium”. With Draugr joining on bass, this album delves deep into themes of ancient sorcery, mysticism, and the occult. “Draconis Maleficium” is a testament to Tryblith’s mastery of blending raw black metal with atmospheric, symphonic, and melodic elements, inviting listeners on a dark and captivating journey into a realm of arcane forces and malevolent entities.
