Bestial Summoning is a cult Dutch black metal band formed in 1990. The outfit stands as one of the earliest and most radical pioneers of the raw, uncompromising black metal scene in the Netherlands. Their style relied on a primal, chaotic, and brutal sonic delivery reminiscent of early acts like Beherit and Blasphemy, heavily driven by total anti-Christian and Satanic themes. The definitive releases in the band's brief yet highly influential discography include the "Sodomistic Rituals" demo (1991) and their sole full-length studio album "The Dark War Has Begun" (1992), which remains a classic of raw underground black metal.
