Krieg (German for "War") is a black metal band from the Somers Point, New Jersey in the United States of America. They play a low-fi, "raw" style, drawing influence from the Darkthrone-esque style of black metal and did not use synthesizers or folk instruments, in their recordings. With the only permanent member being Imperial (Neill Jameson) live members were drawn from an array of various bands, such as Nyktalgia, Nachtmystium, Forest of Impaled, and Satanic Warmaster. The band split-up in 2006, and reformed once again in 2008 and played shows in L.A. and San Francisco. They've recently released a split and are working on a full-length.
Imperial also plays in the crusty Drone/Doom metal project March Into The Sea.
