Obtest
Lithuanian extreme metal band
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Obtest is a Lithuanian extreme metal band from Vilnius.[1] They started out in 1992[2] as a death metal act, but soon changed the style to pagan metal/black metal. Their lyrics are related to Lithuanian mythology and are sung in Lithuanian, though a few of the songs on their demos were in English. The band refers their music as "heathen war metal".[3]
