PATRIARKH
Polish black metal band
Patriarkh (stylised as PATRIARKH in English and ПАТРИАРХЪ in Cyrillic) is a Polish black metal band based in Białystok. The band has its origins in Batushka, from which it splintered after a conflict over the rights to the band name. Their music and lyrics are inspired by the Eastern Orthodox Church, traditional hymns, songs, history and conflicts of the church and regional folk-lore. The band members wear interpretations of Analavos of the Great Schema (see Eastern Orthodox schemas), Mitres, and Klobuks during live performances.
