Bestialord was formed in Wichita, Kansas by Mark Anderson (ex-Manilla Road, Sanctus Infernum) and Chris Johnson (Sanctus Infernum) in October 2016. Rob Harris was soon added on bass and after several months of writing the band entered Red Cat Recording Studio in early 2017, ultimately emerging with their debut album "Law of the Burning". Their style of Occult Horror Metal is inspired by a blend of influences including Black Sabbath, Celtic Frost, Candlemass, Morbid Angel, and Mercyful Fate just to name a few.
