Blissfulviolet: Can you elaborate more on how the band incorporates
Satanism combined with Persian Mythology?
Satanism combined with Persian Mythology?
Akhtya Nachttoter: Satanism is universal, multi cultural and without any
specific forms. Persian mythology is a well rounded study and presentation
of Ahriman as a viable form of the Opposer. Look to the Avesta and
Bundahishn, two powerful works which give much of the foundation of the
spirit of the serpent. Satanism is not found within any specific cultural
manifestation, the spirit is the action of the ideology.

which is interestingly a ritual working created in music. Can you tell me
more about this and how it’s been perceived so far?
Akhtya Nachttoter: It has been taken very well by those interested in
ritual music. It is used to utilize sound to work the transformation of self
through a series of spheres called the Qlippoth. It has proved useful thus
far.

Cold...Machine like is how founder Michael Ford (Akhtya Nachttoter)
describes his creation, Black Funeral. The Houston based band
has been creating blasphemous black metal since 1993. I've always
found this band intriguing with their unique visionary
black/experimental sound. It was great to be able to ask Ford a few
questions and learn more about the world of Black Funeral, as well
as his other endeavors.
