Pagan Altar is a doom metal band from England.
Pagan Altar was formed in 1978 by Alan and Terry Jones. Alongside Witchfinder General, they are one of the few NWOBHM bands to play doom metal. The band's concerts are characterised by moody, epic and heavy music, blended with stage effects which accentuate their interest in occult themes.
Pagan Altar's only release from the NWOBHM era was an independent, self-released, self-titled cassette (which was bootlegged in later years). Their debut album was officially re-released on Oracle Records in 1998, retitled "Volume 1".
The group reformed in 2004 to re-record an album of previously unreleased material which had been written during their original tenure as a band. The resulting album, "Lords of Hypocrisy", met with a positive reception from fans, and a third full-length album duly followed in 2006, entitled "Mythical and Magical".
In 2008, Pagan Altar co-headlined the "Metal Brew" Festival in Mill Hill, alongside Cloven Hoof. Both bands also performed at the "British Steel IV" Festival at the Camden Underworld in 2009. Pagan Altar returned to headline the "British Steel V" Festival in April 2011 and the "Live Evil" Festival in October 2011.

The definitive Occult Doom Metal masterpiece debut from Pagan Altar. At this earliest point the band was still ambitiously pursuing occult metal steeped in Satanic themes and lyrics. This album was recorded and kept as a demo tape in the early 80's. Today it's remarkable for being a lost relic of dark metal and one of the very first Doom Metal albums ever recorded. At the very inception of the genre alongside Black Sabbath, Pentagram, Bedemon and Witchfinder General. The band first released the demo on CD form in 1998 titled "Volume 1." It has since been reissued on LP and CD under the new name "Judgement Of The Dead" with the original intended 1982 cover artwork. The band would become inactive for two decades before finally reuniting as a fantasy themed Doom/Heavy Metal group in the early...
Pagan Altar are of one the all-time best bands in the realm of Heavy/Folk/Doom Metal. Their fantasy-themed records are essentially the metal equivalent of Lord of the Rings. Think Manilla Road meets Black Sabbath meets Cirith Ungol. Incredibly good guitar work. A very vintage sound with an early 70's occult rock mystique. Hard to believe this was recorded and released in 2006. Originally came out on CD through the band's own Oracle Records. It has since been reissued on CD through Shadow Kingdom and Cruz Del Sur Records.

Live at the Katacombes, Montréal, Canada This is the only time in Pagan Altar's recent career where they played with full cloaks, incense (the same one they used back in the 80's!) and black candles, just like they used to do in their beginnings. A magical set, for those who were still sober enough to witness it haha!

Lady Leeanna walks you through the most complete Witchcraft or Pagan altar setup you can Imagine. She goes through naming all of the tools, explains their uses, for the most part how to use, and even tells you about some of the most used ingredients by Pagans. A great suggestion of an altar found here & tips of what might replace smokey incense on the altar.
I created this video for any new Pagans or Wiccans in the community and also people who may just be interested. Setting up an altar is a widely-known part of Wicca and although many people set theirs up differently, this is how I arrange mine. I would just like to say that my way of setting up my altar is not the universal way, meaning you can take inspiration from this but you should always follow your heart and set your altar up how you feel it should be. Blessed be! *Time-lapsed Moon video downloaded from Videezy (Creative Commons).
This video by Lady Leeanna revolves around acquiring things from places where they sell cheaply or getting things intended for one use and yet it can serve for your Pagan needs. Also getting things from outside in nature is talked about.

Ever wonder why our money system is so corrupt and evil? G. Edward Griffin once said, ""The Federal Reserve is a hybrid organization. It's a partnership between the Federal Government and the private banks. When you look at it deeper than that, its essence is neither as a government agency nor a private company. In reality, it is a cartel." Notice, G. Edward Griffin says that the Federal Reserve is a "hybrid organization." I doubt he even knows just how true that statement apparently is. Listen to this interview Rob Skiba did with Tim Bence and discover just how dark the origin if this "Creature From Jeckyll Island" really is.

Hooded figures dressed in black, drifting through the night.
Chanting softly moving slowly bathed in moonlight.
Arms outstretched with fingers groping, walking all in line
From gaping coffins emerge these shadows, awakened for all time,
Witches and Warlocks rising from the grave,
Vampires and sorcerers, from a bygone age.
Up in front the awesome creature marching at their head,
Satan beckons ever onward his army of undead.
Charred limbs heave their mindless bodies through the mists of time.
Sightless sockets follow blindly their leaders pointing arm,
Burning and torture these beings had endured,
Drowning and stoning for reasons now obscure.
From every graveyard pour the hordes to strike before dawn
A thousand years of deaths carnage gathered ‘fore the morn’.
Their vengeance turned against mankind’s unsuspecting head.
