Wolfilas is a Madrid‑based pagan black‑metal project originally active between 1999 and 2000, then unexpectedly revived in 2025 by two of its founding members. The band’s early material belonged to the raw, primitive Iberian pagan‑black underground of the late 90s, with a sound rooted in lo‑fi aggression, pagan atmospheres, and the ideological extremity that characterized some corners of that era’s scene.
The 2025 revival marks a return after 25 years of silence, with new recordings that maintain the rawness of the original demo era while expanding into more structured compositions. Their themes continue to revolve around pagan identity, ancestral myth, and historically extremist ideology — which is part of their documented aesthetic, not something to be celebrated or promoted.
Their comeback includes both a rehearsal‑tape demo and a full‑length album, making Wolfilas one of the rare cases of a Spanish pagan‑black project resurrecting after decades.
