There's more than just one project named after Black Lodge. 1) Black Lodge was a death doom metal band from Stavanger, Norway. Originally named SekstiSoneSatan. The band was formed in 1993 and split up after the release of their only album in 1995. Cold, bleak, dissonant doom metal with female singing and deep growls (but hardly one of the "beauty and the beast" bands that are so prominent in metal). An interesting doom band that uses plenty of experimentation.

There's more than just one project named after Black Lodge. 1) Black Lodge was a death doom metal band from Stavanger, Norway. Originally named SekstiSoneSatan. The band was formed in 1993 and split up after the release of their only album in 1995. Cold, bleak, dissonant doom metal with female singing and deep growls (but hardly one of the "beauty and the beast" bands that are so prominent in metal). An interesting doom band that uses plenty of experimentation. Musically, they have some similarities with old Unholy due to the avantgarde and unconventional song structures. Very little is known about this band other than their release on Head Not Found/Voices of Wonder entitled 'Covet'. 2) Black Lodge was the alias of Dan Dwayre who released some sample based style music on Mo' Wax and later released ambient gong albums. He made his Mo’ Wax debut in 2000 via a Mo’ Wax compilation in the Japanese magazine Relax. In 2001 Mo’ Wax released a Horse With No Name 12", with a planned album never releasing due to the label shutting down. In 2010 Black Lodge released his debut album on Will Bankhead's Trilogy Tapes label, and the new album came with a new sound, moving away from samples and focusing more on gongs. 2018 saw the release of MWR157, featuring several of the unreleased Mo' Wax tracks, and Black Lodge uploaded further archival works to their Bandcamp. After teasing new work through 2020, Black Lodge & Jack Lever released Enso in 2022. Sadly Dan Dwayre passed away shortly after. Note: If you are here for the French industrial black metal band, please fix your tags, the correct name is Blacklodge. If you are here for the native American group, please fix your tags, the correct name is Black Lodge Singers.
