Biography
Formed in the early 2004, Black Metallers Antim Grahan rise from Kathmandu. The band took a hiatus for about 2 and half years when the front man of the band went abroad for his further studies, but as now he has returned, they are back in business with a few line up changes.

Antim Grahan is the first band to have a record deal in the history of Nepali metal scene. They got the label of KTMROCKS RECORDS which happened to be the first record company in Nepal for the local underground metal scene. The EP, ‘Forever Winter’ got an overwhelming response from the metal fans which created an immense popularity of the band in the underground metal community around the country.The band says that their music is representation of pain, suffering and sinister realms of dark fantasy worlds. About their music, the band says “We really don’t want to give away any messages to our listeners whatsoever coz the whole music is represented in a very story like way, more of like fairy tales with a very dark and painful ambience and bitter endings. So all we want is that the people enjoy our music and have totally fuckin’ awesome time while listening.”
After a very good response from the fans from underground community for their debut album, “Forever Winter”, they came out with their 2nd album titled “Tales From The Darkened Woods”. This album by the band had come in a very short time off its release of their first album.
Their third album, "In thy ambience ov malevolence" too was very well recieved all over the world.
Now the band is working on their fourth studio album, which will be released in Japan.
With already 3 albums to their name, having not only Nepal but worldwide appreciation of their effort in the countries such as Estonia, Slovakia, Japan, UK, USA, India, Australia etc, they are coming out very soon with their fourth outing which promises to be a one to be awaited for. After a long hiatus and with a few line up changes, Antim Grahan looks better then ever. And by the looks of things the supremacy of black metal has certainly begun in Nepal.
