Svart Crown began in 2005 with their first demos, then their first album 'Ages of Decay' in 2008 was released on Rupture-Music. Svart Crown started to tour as much as possible really early, and everywhere they could. Everything changed when Gael Barthelemy (Balrog, Drowning, Diabolic) was added as the drummer in 2009 on the album 'Witnessing The Fall', which was released on Listenable Records. This allowed the band to share the stage with Shining, Melechesh, Septic Flesh and Ulcerate, playing more than 200 shows from Europe to the United States.
'Profane' was released in April 2013, with new a drummer who joined in 2011, Nicolas Muller. Nicolas did the Septic Flesh tour, the Ulcerate tour and Nile tour as well. The band just finished the At the Gates of Sethu European tour with Nile and Ex-Deo and will be going back on the road in France in the following weeks, while working on something bigger for 2014.
