Leviathan

San Francisco-based one-man black metal juggernaut Leviathan has self-released nearly a dozen demos and EPs in addition to the three full-length records produced for the label Moribund Cult since Jeff Whitehead started calling himself Wrest and making wholly evil four-track recordings in 1998. Wrest plays all the instruments and records all the vocals himself, in the style pioneered by his Norwegian heroes back in the early '90s (think Burzum). When Wrest is not working on Leviathan material he collaborates with Sunn O))) and plays in the American black-metal supergoup Twilight with members of Isis, Krieg and Nachtmystium.
