Norwegian black/thrash metal group Aura Noir beganin 1993 as a solo project of drummer Carl-Michael Eide ("Agressor"). Ole Jørgen Moe ("Apollyon") was quickly recruited to record the preliminary demos during 1993 and 1994. Rune Eriksen ("Blasphemer") of Mayhem later joined and would contribute toward their first release, 'Black Thrash Attack' in 1996. During 2005, Aggressor reportedly fell (or jumped) from a forth floor window, leaving him wheel-chair bound, but still able to contribue somewhat for Hades Rise of 2008.http://auranoir.bandcamp.com/
