Though many years of evolution the band have expanded their style of black metal as the band members grew as individuals, but still hold true to their original black metal roots whilst continuing to create their own style of metal.
With the first full length release “Through the Impure Veil of Dawn” Thus Defiled built up a successful following in mid 90’s, and “Wings of the Nightstorm” expanded on this success gaining the band major slots with bands such as Cradle of Filth, Cannibal Corpse, Moonspell and Immolation to name but a few.
Durin this era line-up problems raised their head, but towards the new millennium two new members were found in the shape of Paul F and Rob V. The band then set about writing and rehearsing new material. This material had a more progressive edge to it, yet still extremely dark in essence.
In 2001 the now stable line-up entered Philia studios with Dave Chang at the helm to record "Fire Serpent Dawn". This was only released as a promo disc to let people know that Thus Defiled had returned, however one track from this session "Of Shadow And Storm" did feature on the "Britannia Infernus" compilation CD, which boasted acts such as Black Sabbath, Venom and Cradle of Filth. It also gained Thus Defiled the vote for “Best unsigned Band” by the readers of Terrorizer magazine.
The band then set about concentrating on writing material for the next full length album “Weeping Holocaust Tears”. This album upon release took the press by storm, and also gained airplay by legendary DJ John Peel on Radio 1, as well as securing Thus Defiled major interviews and excellent reviews in many of the world’s top magazines. The band were also offered a slot on a major tour with Decapitated and Rotting Christ. A special guest slot with the legendary Mayhem also followed.
