Barathrum, a Finnish black metal band, was formed in 1990 in Kuopio. Initially known as Darkfeast, the group changed its name to Barathrum the following year. The band released several demos between 1991 and 1993 before signing with Nazgul’s Eyrie Productions, which released their albums Hailstorm (1994), Eerie (1995), and Infernal (1997). After a hiatus from the label, Barathrum signed to Spinefarm Records in 1998. Their subsequent releases included Legions of Perkele (1998) and Saatana (1999). The band continued with albums such as Okkult (2000), Venomous (2002), and Anno Aspera: 2003 Years After Bastard’s Birth (2005). In 2017, Barathrum released their ninth full-length album, Fanatiko, under Saturnal Records.
