Mystifier’s status as one of the most celebrated and respected black metal bands ever to have risen from the Brazilian underground is unchallenged. The band’s recorded works extend back over thirty years to 1989, when the “Tormenting the Holy Trinity” demo was released. During the course of the ensuing four years, Mystifier recorded and released the “T.E.A.R. (The Evil Ascension Returns)” EP, the “Aleister Crowley” demo, and its first two full-lengths, “Wicca” and “Göetia.” Each of these recordings documents the incremental steps that the band undertook in developing the infernal sound that it eventually perfected with the release of its second album.
