Essentially a one-person project masterminded by American multi-instrumentalist Akhenaton, Judas Iscariot was formed in 1992 for the aim of creating cynical dark metallic element in the ultra-primitive vein of Norway's Darkthrone. Given to wear the style's requisite clay paint and black robes, Akhenaton likewise ensured that Judas Iscariot's debut album, 1995's The Cold Earth Slept Below come equipped with befittingly bleak, black-and-white art portraying the desolate wintertime vistas of..Illinois? Like-themed follow-up efforts such as Thy Dying Light (1996), Of Great Eternity (1997), Heaven in Flames (1999), Dethroned, Conquered and Forgotten (2000), and To Embrace the Corpses Bleeding (2002), were interspersed with unnumberable EP's and mini-CD's of varying quality. But, if nothing else, Judas Iscariot deserves credit for his consecrated and unswerving imaginativeness, as substantially as for astoundingly wordy and entertaining birdsong titles like "Where Eagles Cry and Vultures Laugh," "Helpless It Lay, Like a Worm in His Frozen Track," and "Charitable Whore Dethroned for Eternity."
