~BIOGRAPHY~
1999
The idea for Perverse Monastyr was born.
2000
At the end of 2000 year, members of Snow Bird (heavy metal) and The Devil (death/doom metal) – two hordes from Bulgaria (Sandanski), during their rehearsals work also for a black metal project called Perverse Monastyr – melodic old-school black metal with satanic and misanthropic lyrics. After composing five songs and a known time in rehearsals, the project remains with a single man – Arkhon Winters – the founder of Perverse Monastyr.
2001
In April 2001 the records of the first demo began – “Resurrection Of The Dark Age” (released in 2003 through AMF Productions & Vogort Zine), which because of difficulties last till the middle of january 2002. It has exclusively rough sound, but melodic guitar lines, an interesting mix of old-school black metal with some death and thrash touches.
2003
In 2003 a song, taken from “Resurrection Of The Dark Age” – “Lake Of Lost Souls” – was included in the cult Underground Black Metal compilation “We Worship…” vol. 1 (AMF Prod.). Near that time a casette version of “Ressurection Of The Dark Age” and both the AMF Productions and Vogort Zine issues came out. Not long after its first produced demo, with a single member and three years in the deepest underground Perverse Monastyr ended its activities as a project…
2005
In August 2005, Arkhon decides to revive Perverse Monastyr, but this time the music won’t be melodic, just the other way – more rough and raw than before. The first album after about three year-break is “Five Years In Blindness”, containing six songs, recoreded in “GFM” demostudio in honour of the fifth anniversary of Perverse Monastyr. The next month (september) the second album is recorded containing four songs, again extremely rough and unbalansed sound, but this time with Bulgarian lyrics. The name of the album is “The Cutted Monk” (EP), the lyrics, as a whole, are about the monk’s moral, people’s aberration and the religion at all.
In December 2005 last the records of “War Against The Deceived Religions” and Merciless Sgan Exekutor is attracred into the project as a vocalist. Again the lyrics are in Bulgarian with undisguised antireligious messages exposing the three most famous religions – the christianity, the moslimity and the jewry. Recorded in two studios – “GFM” and “After Many Funerals” home studio. The albums from 2005 – “Five Years In Blindness” and “The Cutted Monk” was released by the underground label “In Satan’s Honour Records” (Russia), releasing audiocasettes of bands with spiritual satanic themes as well as Ariyan/NS black metal. These two albums from 2005 has been released in limited edition tapes (150 copies) in the beginning of 2006.
2006
The album “War Against The Deceived Religions” is finished in the middle of january 2006 and released in august 2006 on tape by the Underground label “Division Geistes- Waffe” from Germany in limited edition to only 100 copies. At the end of march 2006, Perverse Monastyr began the recording of the next full-length album – “Perverse Monastyr”.

All songs from “The Cutted Monk” EP has been re-recorded with Merciless Sgan Executor on vocals, also two songs from “War Against The Deceived Religions” – “I Killed The False Prophet” and “Jerusalem Is The Hell (The Jewish King)”. “Perverse Monastyr” was finished in the first days of april 2006, recorded again in “GFM” studio, the vocals – in “After Many Funerals” home studio. In july 8 and 9, Perverse Monastyr have recorded two rehearsal songs – “The Christianity Killed Bulgaria” and “…The Nuns, Who Were Throwing Their Children In The River…”, as a part of the promo tape “Great Fast And Paschal Canticles”, including another version of the song “The Herds Will Burn (On The Altar)” from june 2006.
