Formed in early 2006 by Chad Davis (ex-Demoncy, Father Befouled, Profane Grace) Hour Of 13 set out on a path of obscure and dark Heavy/Doom Metal. Joined by Phil Swanson (Vestal Claret, Upwards Of Endtime, Seamount) in 2007, the debut album was recorded and unleashed to great acclaim.Mixing elements of traditional Doom & Heavy Metal, Hour Of 13 have crafted a sound well deserved unto them. Phil Swansons lyrics, dealing with the occult, black magic, satanism and evil in general add to the obscure image of the band and go well with their traditional sound, creating a nostalgic aura andreminding the listener of the early 80s and bands such as Pagan Altar, Ritual and old Mercyful Fate.
