1914

1914 is a Ukrainian blackened death/doom metal band formed in Lviv in 2014, drawing its name and thematic inspiration from the outbreak of World War I. Blending doom, death, and black metal with authentic historical samples, the band crafts immersive narratives of the Great War's horrors, earning recognition through releases that explore trench warfare and imperial soldier stories. Hailing from a rich local metal scene, members bring experience from prior acts like Ratbite and Disentrail, and they've shared stages with metal legends such as Paradise Lost, Sepultura, and Candlemass at European festivals.
