Some band members no longer identify as Christian.

Some members were previously in Akeldama, but I'm not sure if that's a previous name of this band, or if it was a different band altogether. Anyway, Mournful Vengeance started in 1999 and changed their name to Aristaeus in 2001.

Lineup:
Lord Gideon - Vocals (growls)
Killian Thorn - Guitars
Bane Ra'am - Guitars
Vlad Serene - Bass

Past members:
Lord Malachi - Unknown
Dani Lynch - Unknown
Lord von Usvart - "A little of everything" / Unknown

Chapter 6 (demo, NOT SURE IF RELEASED)
Format unknown

Planned to be released on some sort of physical format in October, 1999.
"Taken from Revelations, it is a concept project with heavily layered keyboards and melodic guitars. However due to lack of good production we urge you not to judge too harshly."

On their old website, there are links (that don't work) for the songs from their other demo... but if you look at the URLs for these songs, different song names are listed, one of which is "chaptersix". It seems these are the track titles for Chapter 6, but I'm not entirely sure.

POSSIBLE TRACKLIST
1) Enchained
2) Chapter Six
3) Darkened Sun

INFO:
1) Are these, indeed, the correct tracks for "Chapter Six"? 2) Was either demo released? 3) Missing lineup info. 4) Lyrics? 5) What exactly is this band's connection to Akeldama? Are they two different names for the same band, or are they two different bands?
