BLACKOSH is a dyed-in-the-wool veteran of the metal underground: Petr "Blackie" Hošek, a founding member of pioneering black metallers Root, and who was an integral songwriter for most of that band's existence. With BLACKOSH, Hošek here returns to the nom de plume he used during Root's most classic albums, Zjevení and Hell Symphony, and in essence nearly returns to those halcyon days of the early '90s, when the energy of newness was in the air and creativity was unchained and wide open for those who wanted to take the black torch further.
