There are at least 7 artists named Feral:
1) A death metal band, from Skellefteå, Sweden. They play traditional Swedish death metal influenced by hard rock with themes of death, anti-Christianity, and the grave.
Feral has released two demos; Graverobber in August 2007 which was re-released twice (once in 2007 and once in 2009) with different tracklists, Welcome To The Graveyard in 2009, and a full length CD Dragged To The Altar, released 2011 on Ibex Moon records, an American label. A split 7” EP with Revel In Flesh called The Deathkult EP was released in early 2014 on Joe Black records (Chaos Magazine).
First formed under the name Valmer & Hook in 2003 by two friends who decided to record a demo in 2004 as a joke (there is a track called Rainbow In The Dark), they called it Black Death. When they were asked to play a gig in 2005, they searched for additional members. They found the live guitarist Johell, later on drummer Damien & lead guitarist Svarte Petter. They released a second demo Grim Winternight! in 2006, shortly after its release, a name change was decided to reflect a more serious attitude. Some of the tracks from Grim Winternight are on the first Feral demo.
