Occasionally I'm asked about the band name and so I've taken an excerpt from the De Umbris Zine interview I did to explain it.
01 First of all, I’m really curious about the band’s name! It’s rather an unusual name for a black metal
band. Can you explain how you chose that and if there’s a message you want to send through that
name?
The band name needed to represent our impression of the music we're creating and the darkness within it. Since the darkside is ultimately defined by Hell we decided that a name discretely portraying hell would suit perfectly. The band name explanation is the first thing any visitor to the website reads and states quite simply-
If the northern extremity were referred to as "Heaven"... SOUTHERN EXTREMITY
The only message contained in the name is the description of our type of music.
