Kaiadas is now leading this black metal tank and in 1998 their first album entitled "Up From The Ashes" became a reality. A masterpiece of fast, violent black metal with melodic pagan atmosphere and feeling. For two whole years Naer Mataron worked on a new material with a satanic devotion to their cause and finally in November 2000 their album entitled "Scotos Aenaon" (ancient Greek phrase for endless darkness) hit the streets.
