Formed in 1998, Watain is a Swedish black metal band famous for their Theistic Satanist views and for their live shows which involve pyrotechnics, candles, Satanic rituals, limbs and bones of animal carcasses, and blood. The band has often been compared to Dissection or considered to be influenced by Ofermod. All lyrics, unless contributed by members of other bands, are written by vocalist Erik Danielsson, who summed up their topics as "the religion they are based upon, Satanism, or – to avoid confusion – Devilworship". Watain also supports the Misanthropic Luciferian Order, a cult which is associated with animal abuse and murder. The band's members are alleged to have killed pigeons and even attempted to buy dogs from the homeless as a source of blood for their concerts.
