Agalloch

Agalloch (also agallocha, agallochum) is a soft, resinous wood of highly aromatic smell, and is used as incense and perfume in many Asian countries. Originally started as a studio project, Agalloch played their first gig opening for Witch Mountain and YOB in 2003. John Haughm parted ways with rest of the members in May 2016. After a few days of uncertainty, an official statement was issued declaring Agalloch to be "permanently laid to rest" on May 18th, 2016.

Eventually, in late June 2016 he declared during an interview for Billboard that he had never intended to reduce Agalloch to a solo project and that he is completely fine with the split. John Haughm moved into the black metal project Pillorian, while Don Anderson, Jason Walton and Aesop Dekker formed Khôrada. Compilation appearances: - "A Fragment" (02:03), which is a dark ambient piece, on The End Records' "Phases: The Dark Side of Music" - "Nebelmeer", with German artist Mathias Grassow, on "Der Wanderer über dem Nebelmeer" - "Where Shade Once Was", with Jackie Perez Gratz on cello, on "Oak Folk", a release compiled by Gerhard Hallstatt of Allerseelen
