 Zyklon (band) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Zyklon is a Norwegian flened death metal band formed in 1998 by members of Norwegian fl metal band Emperor Samoth and Trym, as well as former members of Myrkskog in order to make up for the fact that Emperor were no longer playing live.
Zyklon's debut album was named "World Ov Worms".
This album's sound was quite similar to that of Destructhor's band Myrkskog's album "Deathmachine." The album was made up of extremely fast riffing and blastbeats aided by the vocals of Daemon and lyrics written by Faust, formerly the drummer for fl metal band Emperor.

ZYKLON, the Norwegian band featuring former EMPEROR members Samoth (guitar) and Trym (drums), have set "Disintegrate" as the working title of their third album, tentatively due before the end of the year via Candlelight Records.
Zyklon can at times sound a bit like Emperor on their last two albums, but it is nothing like the (good) old albums from Emperor.
Zyklon is good, but nowhere near the glory of Emperor in their heyday.

 Prussic Acid (Zyklon) for Disinfestation
ZYKLON is the absorption of a mixture of prussic acid and an irritant by a carrier.
When fumigating with Zyklon use only special filters, e.g.: the filter insert "J" (blue-brown) of the Auergesellschaft Berlin or of the Draegerwerke, Luebeck.
The contents are to be spread thinly so that the Zyklon can evaporate quickly and the necessary density of gas can be achieved as soon as possible.

 earpollution - profiles - zyklon [page 1] - issue 3.Ø4, april 2ØØ1
Zyklon is a potent mixture of Zamoth (Samoth of Emperor and many other bands), Destructhor (Myrkskog also on Candlelight Records), Trym (Emperor) and Daemon (Limbonic Art).
Zyklon was based on some of the same ideas: to create a hard-hitting metal act with an apocalyptic concept.
Zyklon is more futuristic, though, and a hell of a lot more professional, and it is for me a proper band, while Z-B was just a project.

I've long been a fan of Emperor, and since Zyklon consists of Samoth and Trym from Emperor, I immediately pounced on "World ov Worms" when it was first released.
Zyklon easily rivals Emperor in speed and intensity, but Zyklon forgoes the atmospheric synth elements for a stripped down sound and pinpoint precision.
I will forever lament the fact that I missed the Emperor show that came to Jaxx a few years ago, and if Zyklon comes around (as their bio sheet claims they will) I will definitely be making that show.

 THHP Question: Zyklon B.
There was still another episode that gave the officials of Degesch more than a hint of the dread purpose to which their Zyklon B was being put by the S.S. When manufactured as a pesticide Zyklon B contained a special odor or indicator to warn human beings of its lethal presence.
The Zyklon could have been left where it was, ground to dust under someone's heel, shoveled into a pit or the ditch a few dozen yards away, or any number of other disposal methods.
Zyklon was a better killer than engine exhaust, actually; it was probably a fair bit faster, and HCN is unquestionably a deadlier poison than anything in engine exhaust.

 Zyklon - Biography - AOL Music
An off-shoot of Norwegian fl metal legends Emperor, Zyklon was founded by guitarist/bassist Zamoth (aka Samoth, as he is known in Emperor), who wanted to focus on the more modern and aggressive aspects of the latter band's style.
Compared with Emperor, Zyklon has a more hard-edged and less atmospheric or majestic sound; its members have chosen the broader extreme metal tag, as opposed to fl metal, to describe their music.
(They have also made a point of distinguishing themselves from Zyklon-B, another, earlier, Emperor off-shoot.) Zyklon was founded in 1998, but their official lineup took a couple of years to fully come together, solidifying in the year 2000 with drummer Trym (also of Emperor) and bassist/lead guitarist Destructhor (Myrkskog) filling in the other instrumental slots.

 Auschwitz: Zyklon B
During a gassing Zyklon B had to be poured through both openings of the gas-chamber room at the same time.
I did not look through the opening because it had to be closed as soon as the Zyklon B had been poured in.

A "typical" can of Zyklon contained 200 grams of HCN adsorbed onto the carrier, and was stored in metal tins marked with a death's head and warning that read: "Giftgas!" (Deathly poisonous gas!) {13}.
Since Zyklon can be effectively used at temperatures close to freezing, it seems that even cold temperatures did not prevent the use of Zyklon as fumigant (or the case of the Holocaust, as a murder weapon).
I will also discuss how much Zyklon B would be needed to reach lethal concentration in the room, and how fast 1 kilo of Zyklon would have to evaporate to reach the lethal concentration of 300 ppm in ten minutes.

 Zyklon - 'World ov Worms' review @ into-obscurity.com[enter the underground]
Zyklon, made up of Zamoth (formerly Samoth), the founder of Emperor, Trym, the drummer of Emperor, Destructhor of Myrkskog on bass and lead guitar, Daemon from Limbonic Art on vocals, and Bard Faust Eithurn penning the lyrics, can easily be classified as a "supergroup".
But, don't be too quick to label them a side project, the band members are quite insistent that Zyklon is a full-time band.
However, with bands like Zyklon in their wake, the blow will definitely be softened a greal deal.

 MetalReview.com - Metal Review of Zyklon - Disintegrate
Zyklon seem to have found the final incarnation of their sound within their myriad expressions of extreme metal settling primarily on a vitriolic whirlwind of pummeling death metal with the inclusion of ferocious fl metal overtones.
The sheer intrinsic level of talent and sophistication within Zyklon’s music is their ability on this album at creating a technically varied and intense expression of nuanced complexity.
I know Zyklon is an aquired taste as to whether or not you think it stands out from the pack but despite it's quality, Afterburner was pretty damn non-descript when you get right down to it.

Aeon is Zyklon's second album and proves them to be more than a mere all-star, side-project band.
Zyklon is the new full-time super group from Norway's most flened regions, consisting of Emperor members Samoth (guitarist and bass) and drummer Trym, Myrkskog's Destructhor on lead guitar, and Limbonic Art vocalist Daemon.
This is hyper-fast, extreme fl death metal, not to be contended with from any region or country, as it blitzkriegs the listener with it's all-out sensory attack.

If Zyklon holes in the roof of Leichenkeller 1 had been there, as described by the most important witnesses within months after the capture of Auschwitz, indisputable evidence of their existence would still be discernible there today.
In fact, there were no Zyklon holes at Crematorium II of Auschwitz-Birkenau, and the absence of those humble openings leaves the Auschwitz myth as blasted as the concrete, and as contorted as this rebar, in the ruins of the morgue there today.

Zyklon's music is mostly death metal, but the band also blends in the fl metal roots, along with a side of industrial.
Zyklon still manages to maintain its classic nihilistic future-apocalyptic sound typified by destructive, swirling guitar riffs and electronic noises and samples.
All of the album's lyrics (as usual with Zyklon) were written by Faust (ex-Emperor) and are extremely misanthropic and individualistic, yet still very intelligent in their philosophy.

Guitarist Samoth and drummer Trym were some of the first to transcend the genres when they disbanded the highly influential band Emperor and decided to try their hand at something more extreme and aggressive.
Zyklon created a huge buzz when their 2001 debut album, World Ov Worms quickly escalated to become an instant Extreme Metal classic.
Perhaps some Zyklon fans will find themselves a bit undecided at first when hearing this album, especially if you were as blown away by the sound on World Ov Worms as I was.

 Zyklon
There is no doubt that the second full-length album from Norway's ZYKLON is a platter highly anticipated.
Founded in 1998, it was evident from the start that ZYKLON was to be more than just a "side project" for the then-Emperor guitarist and drummer.
Whereas previous work catered around the studio, ZYKLON is equally dedicated to the live arena.

Zyklon returns with a release that walks the middle ground.
The quality of the recording is equivalent to that heard on "Aeon," meaning that the production is heavy and clear with lots of guitar chunk and thick, triggered drums a la your average death metal record.
Perhaps neither are new to Zyklon, but both are better-written into the songs and feature more prominently than on prior recordings.
