KOMMANDANT, a blackened death metal band from Chicago, Illinois, has gained a lot of notoriety for their use of provocative imagery – both visually and lyrically. Featuring past members of bands such as CIANIDE, FOREST OF IMPALED, KRIEG, and SARCOPHAGUS, KOMMANDANT boasts an impressive musical pedigree. Poised to release two separate full-lengths this fall, “Draconian Archetype” and “Deathmarches” directly on the heels of last summer’s EP “Kontakt”, KOMMANDANT have been working furiously to establish a notable presence in the USBM underground.
