FORMLOFF are a two-piece progressive black metal band from Leikvang, Norway, founded in 2002, by Marius Blekspetl SJØLI and Bernt Karsten SANNERUD. Between 2002 and 2005 they released four demos before their signing to Audio Savant for the release of their first full length ''Adjø Silo'' in 2006. Their sophomore album ''Sphyorelandet'' was released in March of 2012 on Eisenwald Tonschmiede.
Formloff's blend of doomy black metal is heavily steeped in progressive and avant-garde tendencies, incorporating long and free-flowing compositions, numerous time signature and tempo changes, unique melodic structure, and heavy use of cult-like chanting in addition to keys and folk instruments like the mandolin.
