title="Multi-instrumentalist">multi-instrumentalist</a> in the country's <a href="/wiki/Black_metal" title="Black metal">black metal</a> scene. He is well known for his distinct guitar work and drumming in the band <a href="/wiki/Emperor_(Norwegian_band)" title="Emperor (Norwegian band)">Emperor</a>, as well as his formation of the <a href="/wiki/Death_metal" title="Death metal">death metal</a> band <a href="/wiki/Zyklon" title="Zyklon">Zyklon</a>. In very early Emperor releases, he was called <b>Samot</b> (his name "Tomas" backwards), and with the formation of Zyklon he became known as <b>Zamoth</b>. Samoth was the owner of the record label Nocturnal Art Productions and had a close relationship with <a href="/wiki/Candlelight_Records" title="Candlelight Records">Candlelight Records</a>. </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Biography">Biography</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Samoth&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Biography"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Samoth was born on 9 June 1974 in <a href="/wiki/Hammerfest" class="mw-redirect" title="Hammerfest">Hammerfest</a>. He is the son of Spoonful of Blues bass player Jens Haugen, who encouraged his son to play bass guitar. He grew up in Akkerhaugen, Norway. When Samoth was a young man, he met fellow musician Vegard Tveitan, who would later become known as <a href="/wiki/Ihsahn" title="Ihsahn">Ihsahn</a>, at a rock <a href="/wiki/Clinic_(music)" title="Clinic (music)">clinic</a> in <a href="/wiki/Bergen" title="Bergen">Bergen</a>. The two soon became friends and started playing music together. They formed a band and moved through various names – they were called Dark Device, Xerasia, and finally Embryonic. The group eventually settled on the name <a href="/wiki/Thou_Shalt_Suffer_(band)" class="mw-redirect" title="Thou Shalt Suffer (band)">Thou Shalt Suffer</a> in 1991. They were playing an early form of <a href="/wiki/Black_metal" title="Black metal">black metal</a> with keyboards strongly influenced by <a href="/wiki/Death_metal" title="Death metal">death metal</a>, particularly vocally. </p><p>Samoth and <a href="/wiki/Ihsahn" title="Ihsahn">Ihsahn</a>'s friendship proved to be strong, and the two eventually took their musicianship to a new level. Partially due to the influence of <a href="/wiki/%C3%98ystein_Aarseth" class="mw-redirect" title="Øystein Aarseth">Euronymous</a> of the band <a href="/wiki/Mayhem_(band)" title="Mayhem (band)">Mayhem</a>, Samoth left Thou Shalt Suffer and with Ihsahn, began writing music for a new band called <a href="/wiki/Emperor_(Norwegian_band)" title="Emperor (Norwegian band)">Emperor</a> (in which he played drums). Ihsahn was the only member of Thou Shalt Suffer to remain, and soon bass player <a href="/wiki/Mortiis" title="Mortiis">Mortiis</a> and drummer <a href="/wiki/B%C3%A5rd_Faust" class="mw-redirect" title="Bård Faust">Faust</a> were recruited for Emperor; Samoth moved back to his more familiar position of guitar. At this point, the group was playing fully developed black metal. Emperor was quick to release several demos in 1992 and 1993, which gained them recognition and popularity in the underground. Mortiis did not stay in the band, and decided to form his own, more electronic-based solo band. He was succeeded by <a href="/wiki/Tchort" title="Tchort">Tchort</a>. </p><p>In 1994, Samoth was sentenced to 16 months in prison for burning <a href="/wiki/Skjold_Church,_Rogaland" title="Skjold Church, Rogaland">Skjold Church</a> in <a href="/wiki/Vindafjord" title="Vindafjord">Vindafjord</a>, together with <a href="/wiki/Varg_Vikernes" title="Varg Vikernes">Varg Vikernes</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-1"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The <a href="/wiki/Arson" title="Arson">arson</a> was committed during a pause in the recording of the <a href="/wiki/Burzum" title="Burzum">Burzum</a> EP <a href="/wiki/Aske_(album)" class="mw-redirect" title="Aske (album)"><i>Aske</i></a> (<i>Ashes</i>),<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> where Samoth performed as a session bass player. As Tchort and Faust were also imprisoned at this time, Ihsahn was the only remaining band member outside prison, and Emperor did not release another album for three years. Tchort and Faust did not return to the band. </p><p>After years of playing in Emperor and being featured on various black metal side projects, Samoth, in conjunction with Ihsahn, decided to dissolve Emperor in 2001 due to their differing musical tastes. Although black metal was both Samoth and Ihsahn's biggest influence and favorite genre of music, Samoth was leaning toward a futuristic death metal sound, while Ihsahn was more influenced by <a href="/wiki/Progressive_metal" title="Progressive metal">progressive metal</a> and <a href="/wiki/Symphonic_metal" title="Symphonic metal">symphonic metal</a>. After Emperor's final release, <i><a href="/wiki/Prometheus:_The_Discipline_of_Fire_%26_Demise" title="Prometheus: The Discipline of Fire & Demise">Prometheus: The Discipline of Fire & Demise</a></i>, composed entirely by Ihsahn, Emperor was no more. Samoth went on to play guitar with fellow drummer <a href="/wiki/Trym_Torson" title="Trym Torson">Trym</a> in the death metal band <a href="/wiki/Zyklon" title="Zyklon">Zyklon</a>. </p><p>Emperor regrouped in 2006 with the core trio of Ihsahn, Samoth and Trym augmented by a bassist and a keyboardist, and played a few one-night-off gigs in Europe and US in 2006 and 2007. </p><p>Recently Samoth was involved in Norwegian-American <a href="/wiki/Supergroup_(music)" title="Supergroup (music)">supergroup</a> <a href="/wiki/Scum_(band)" title="Scum (band)">Scum</a>, which also featured <a href="/wiki/Faust_(musician)" title="Faust (musician)">Bård Faust</a>, Cosmocrator of Mindgrinder, Chasey Chaos of <a href="/wiki/Amen_(American_band)" title="Amen (American band)">Amen</a> and Happy Tom from <a href="/wiki/Turbonegro" title="Turbonegro">Turbonegro</a>. </p><p>Samoth did voice work for 2007's <a href="/wiki/Adult_Swim" title="Adult Swim">Adult Swim</a> cartoon <i><a href="/wiki/Metalocalypse" title="Metalocalypse">Metalocalypse</a></i> episode "Dethfashion". </p><p>In 2008, Samoth formed The Wretched End with Cosmo and went on to release 3 albums: Ominous (2010), Inroads (2012) and In These Woods, From These Mountains (2016). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Personal_life">Personal life</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Samoth&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Personal life"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Haugen was married to German musician <a href="/wiki/Andrea_Haugen" title="Andrea Haugen">Andrea Haugen</a> (née Meyer), with whom he fathered a daughter.
