Biography

After their formation in 2017, the band Ontborg from northern Italy released their debut album "Within The Depths Of Oblivion" in 2019, which received very good reviews in the relevant music press. The band indulges in melodic death metal with a Swedish touch of the 90s on their sound. A very important stylistic element is the characteristic HM-2 guitar sound, but Ontborg don't pull the chainsaw guitar noose too tight, still leaving enough room for melodies in the songs and to accommodate stylistic elements from melodic black metal. At the end of 2022, Ontborg signed a contract with Black Lion Records, which will release the second album "Following The Steps Of Damnation" in spring 2023.
