History & Biography
There are several Carpe Noctems on the metal and several bands have named their band the same. The band was founded by Alexander, Andri and Helgi in November 2005 and issued a demo called Myrkraverk in 2008. The Carpe Noctem (self-titled) demo came out in 2009. Code666 issued the band’s debut in 2013. The Iceland-based act’s Vitrun was out through Code666 on the 5th of October. Aldrnari was a Carpe Noctem and Árstíðir Lífsins split in 2020. The act was booked for the SÁTAN festival locally in 2026.

Carpe Noctem means ‘Seize The Night’ in Latin. Ironically, the band reflects Nordic fables in its lyrics.
