Nortt is a Danish
eponymous pseudonym. The project was founded in 1995 and the sole member describes his music as "pure depressive black funeral doom metal". In terms of lyrics and imagery (for instance the use of corpse paint) he is akin to other black metal acts, while the sound of his music is closer to doom metal
.
On his official website Nortt reveals a fascination with
pagan) religions with respect. Nortt believes that it takes strength to be a Satanist, because of its existentialism
and free thought.
For his third full-length album, Galgenfrist, he signed with Italian underground label Avantgarde Music.
