De Magia Veterum is an avant-garde metal musical project founded by Dutch multi-instrumentalist and composer Maurice "Mories" de Jong in 2003. In contrast to de Jong's other work, the music of De Magia Veterum is decidedly electric guitar-based and heavily indebted to black metal music. Allmusic credited the discography with "redefining the limits of extremism through pure sonic annihilation."[1]
History[edit]
Maurice de Jong began recording for De Magia Veterum in 2003 and began releasing finished music under the name on Myspace in 2005.[2] Shortly after, tracks were compiled together and released as De Magia Veterum's debut album, titled Spikes Through Eyes. The album would be expanded re-released in 2008 as Verus Diuinus Magus, including additional tracks recorded during the same sessions.
In 2009, De Magia Veterum issued its label debut on Transcendental Creations titled Migdal Bavel.[3] Under the same label, The Divine Antithesis was released in 2011 and The Deification the following year.
