Catacombs was a doom metal solo project of Xathagorra Mlandroth[1] (born John Del Russi[2]). The band's music was deeply inspired by Lovecraftian horror and the Cthulhu Mythos, often directly referencing it lyrically.[3] The project followed Xathagorra's other endeavor Hierophant[4] but was concluded when Xathagorra began releasing all his subsequent music under the name Xathagorra[5] through his record label Xathagorra Industries.[6] Xathagorra Industries re-released Catacombs albums in physical format as well as through Xathagorra's bandcamp page.[7]
