Setherial is a Swedish black metal band from Sundsvall formed in 1993 by Kheeroth, Zathanel, Devothan, and Mysteriis. The group's early years saw the release of their debut demo A Hail to the Faceless Angels in 1994, followed by the EP För dem mitt blod (1995). Their first full-length album, Nord..., was released in March 1996 and is considered a significant contribution to Swedish black metal. The album featured long tracks inspired by Dissection and Emperor. In 1998, Setherial released Lords of the Nightrealm, marking a shift towards shorter, faster songs with simpler structures.
