Nazgûl are a Black Metal band from Italy whose two members are Zakrathor and Thornset.

Their particular brand of BM is both melodic and harsh, but above all else it's epic. Aside from incorporating elements of folk and classical music in their sound, it's noteworthy that all their lyrics are exclusively written in Latin.

They have so far released one album, De Expugnatione Elfmuth (2002). It deals with the war waged in Middle-Earth by the forces of the Dark Lord against the human and elven resistance, and the defeat of the latter. The course of these battles is represented musically as much as it's told through the lyrics.

In 2006, Nazgûl announced they would begin recording their new album, tentatively titled Daemonolatria Elfica, in May 2007. In August 2007, it was made known via their MySpace that the new working title of the album was Elfmorul, and that it would "soon be ready and available". Read more on Last.fm.
