Corax B.M's sound could best be characterised as a combination of black metal that owes a lot to early Rotting Christ, Necromantia and thrash metal or even hardcore influences that weave through many parts of their music. The Greek verse gives its own distinct sound. Aggressive, rough and emotionally charged, "Pagana" oozes with energy from start to finish.

“Pagana” follows on from the release of the “Spread the Occult” EP which saw the light of day in May 2022 via Poland’s Pagan Records and featured The Magus (Necromantia, Yoth Iria etc.) on guest vocals on the song “Anilliagos”. Hailing from Athens, Greece, the band started as a side project by Kostas “Corax” Katoikos (Blossom Death, Anachrist, In Burial, ex-Sorrowful Angels) who collaborated with drummer Morker (Yiannis Chariskos) and vocalist Énnea (Marita Makaronidi) for her use of “whisper vocals”. Later, they were joined by bassist Peisithanatos (Thanos Nanopoulos) and the project inevitably became a solid band.

Shortly after joining Pagan Records’ roster, the project started performing live. The first live appearance was in April of 2022 at Remedy live stage (Athens). Later in September 2022, they appeared during the opening day of Golden R Festival in Volos, in October 2022, then at Storming The Gates Festival in Athens and in February 2023 at Blackended Horizons with more shows scheduled for 2023 and 2024.
