The idea for this band was devised in 2015, in the hope it would develop into a full line-up eventually, able to create our vision of black metal entwined with chamber music - and it has. Along the way we’ve gathered a troupe of incredible musicians, all established in their own right; we are 7, spread across five countries and committed to creating for this thing we call, Antiqva. So welcome to this site, where we will be updating regularly, our path before has been a slow procession but now despite distance and pandemic we are on the eve of sharing with you a taste of what is to come, and so onward our path will be an unshakeable march.
