Limbonic Art is a black metal band from Sandefjord, Norway. The group combines elements of traditional black metal with symphonic metal keyboard melodies and dark ambient noises. Since Limbonic Art has no drummer, they use a drum machine which has caused a degree of controversy among black metal fans.[citation needed]

[edit] Biography
Limbonic Art formed in 1993. In 1996, they were signed to the record label Nocturnal Art Productions, owned by Samoth (of Emperor and Zyklon). Their debut album was Moon in the Scorpio. In 2003, the group decided to disband with a statement saying "we feel that we have reached as far as we could in our collaboration ... the circle is complete, begin another".
On June 6, 2006 (06.06.06), the band reunited and started to write new material. On February 21, 2007 it was announced that the band plans to release the new album entitled Legacy of Evil in summer 2007.[1]
A subsequent dispute between the band members results in Morfeus's ouster from the band, making Limbonic Art essentially Daemon's solo project He has currently completed several tracks for the next, as yet untitled, Limbonic Art release. Daemon reported that the new music strips the symphonics and keyboards, making it a more raw, brutal, old school black metal band.[citation needed]
