Thy Serpent call their music "Anti-Christian Dark Metal", being they believe that black metal is supposed to be Satanic music, and because they are not Satanists and they don''t want to call their music "black metal."
Sami Tenetz is the founder and owner of the Spinefarm Records sub-label Spikefarm Records started in 1999 which specializes in extreme metal moreso, than the primary label Spinefarm which tends to sign the more melodic metal acts. | | Buy their stuff | Buy from The End Records
