An branch of Norwegian sinister metallic element legends Emperor, Zyklon was founded by guitarist/bassist Zamoth (aka Samoth, as he is known in Emperor), wHO wanted to focus on the more modern and fast-growing aspects of the latter band's style. Compared with Emperor, Zyklon has a more than hard-edged and less atmospherical or regal sound; its members have chosen the broader extreme metal tag, as opposed to black metal, to report their music. (They have too made a stop of distinguishing themselves from Zyklon-B, some other, earlier, Emperor branch.) Zyklon was founded in 1998, just their official lineup took a twosome of age to amply come together, set in the year 2000 with drummer Trym (also of Emperor) and bassist/lead guitar player Destructhor (Myrkskog) filling in the other instrumental slots. Their first-class honours degree album, Domain of Worms, came out on Candlelight Records in 2001 with Daemon from Limbonic Art manipulation lead-in vocals. The lyrics for Macrocosm of Worms were written all by one-time Emperor drummer Bard "Faustus" Eithun, further highlight the Emperor connexion.
