Dark Heresy was a Baroque death metal band based in suburban London, England and mainly active during the years 1993-1995, a period during which the London underground metal scene peaked. They played over fifty concerts across England during this period, often as headliners (including one night headlining the Marquee) as well as supporting bands like Ancient Rites, At the Gates, Cradle of Filth and Dissection. They split up in 1996 following some line-up difficulties.
Famous quotes containing the words dark and/or heresy:
“Our roots are in the dark; the earth is our country. Why did we look up for blessing—instead of around, and down? What hope we have lies there. Not in the sky full of orbiting spy-eyes and weaponry, but in the earth we have looked down upon. Not from above, but from below. Not in the light that blinds, but in the dark that nourishes, where human beings grow human souls.”
—Ursula K. Le Guin (b. 1929)
“I have grown so tired of Woman with a capital W, though I suppose it is rankest heresy to say so. I don’t want to be Woman at all—I have begun to feel that I want to be something like this—WO—A–.”
—Frances Hodgson Burnett (1849–1924)
