Biography

Darkestrah, the Kyrgyz Pagan Metal group, was established in Bishkek and their first demo, "The Black Pagan Act" was recorded in December 1999. In 2000 December, their second demo called "Through the Ashes of Shamanic Flames" got released too, by German "Curse of KvN Sadistic". In 2003 February, NCR recorded their first worldwide known album called as "Sary Oy". In this album, traditional folk songs with the traditional instruments were combined with metal. It is about a Kyrgyz legend.

In 2004 March, "The Way to Paganism" was recorded and it was followed by "Embrace of Memory" in 2005 October. In 2007 they recorded a new album, "Epos" with a new studio called "Kick the Flame Studio". The "Epos" is almost fully dedicated to Issyk-kul Lake. It is filled with Pagan motives.
