Emanuel, guitar, Admonish: You’re Christian, but you play black metal. How did that happen?

Vice: Do you use terms like “white metal” or “un-black metal?”

Jonas, bass, Pantokrator:
Would you listen to traditional, satanic black metal? What do other Christians think of you? What about metal people? What do they think about you? Pantokrator just signed to Whirlwind Records and are set to tour through Europe. They will start recording their new album shortly. www.pantokrator.com
