Bishop of Hexen" was formed in late 1994 early 1995. After a few line-up changes, the band started working on its material, in a more intensive and professional direction & form.

In the beginning of December 1995, "Bishop of Hexen" entered the studios to record its debut demo tape: "Ancient Hymns of Legends & Lore", it saw light in the breaking of the New Year, at January 1996, and presented the following tracks:

  4. "Lure My Spelled Emotions"
  5. "To Begin the Quest Towards the Noble Dark Cause"
  6. Outro: "The Fascinating Installment of Triumph"

The demo tape got extremely good response from the world wide underground metal scene, and was completely sold out at 450 copies.

Numerous record labels where interested in signing the band for a record deal and finally "Bishop of Hexen" signed with "Hammer Heart productions" for its first album.

In July 1996 the band entered the studios once again and released its full length album masterpiece in April 1997, entitled: "Archives of an Enchanted Philosophy", presenting 8 tracks of the most emotional atmosphere & melodic black-metal art ever released:

"Bishop of Hexen" has based all of its work thus far, both musically & lyrically, according to an ancient legendary concept, which is, in oppose to countless other concepts used by metal bands, an original one which was written by the band itself.
