Kvist

Norwegian Black Metal Band

Kvist was a Norwegian black metal band that formed in the early 1990s. They are known for their sole full-length album, "For Kunsten Maa Vi Evig Vike," which was released in 1996. The band's music is characterized by its raw production, melodic elements, and atmospheric qualities, which were somewhat atypical for the black metal scene at the time. Despite their brief career and limited discography, Kvist's work has been influential within the genre, garnering a cult following. The band members included vocalist and guitarist Tom Hagen, guitarist Hallvard Wennersberg Hagen, bassist Endre Bjotveit, and drummer Veron. After the release of their debut album, Kvist disbanded and did not produce further albums or engage in significant activity within the music scene. Their impact remains tied to their singular contribution to the black metal genre during its formative years.
