History
1349 formed in 1997, and consists of several former members of the band Alvheim. Drummer Frost is also a member of Satyricon.
In recognition of 1349's influences, the band covered Mayhem's "Buried by Time and Dust" on their debut album, Liberation. At 1349's live shows, the band has covered Celtic Frost, whom vocalist Ravn cites as his principal influence.
1349 tours regularly. The band's live shows often begin with Frost and guitarist Archaon breathing fire. In 2006, 1349 toured the US with Celtic Frost.http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/and-sahg-to-support-celtic-frost-on-u-s-tour/ 1349 and Sahg to support Celtic Frost on U.S. tour Blabbermouth.net 5 July 2006 25 December 2009 Ravn appeared on the Celtic Frost album Monotheist (2006), performing guest vocals on the CD digipack bonus track "Temple of Depression".
