Both musically and lyrically, Sargeist stays close to the roots of Scandinavian "old school" black metal. Lyrical subjects thus often deal with Satanism and anti-Christian blasphemy, as well as darkness, depression, misanthropy and hate. The band's name combines the two German words, "sarg" (coffin) and "geist" (spirit, ghost), and derives from the song "The Old Coffin Spirit" by the black metal band Rotting Christ. All members go by pseudonyms.

Sargeist ist eine finnische Black-Metal-Band aus Lappeenranta, Tampere, die 1999 gegründet wurde. Der Bandname ist an das Lied The Old Coffin Spirit von Rotting Christ angelehnt[1] und von den beiden Wörtern Sarg und Geist abgeleitet. Die Gruppe war erst bloß als ein Nebenprojekt des Horna-Gründers und -Gitarristen Shatraug gedacht. Die Aussagen um die Gründung von Sargeist spalten sich.- [en] Sargeist

Sargeist es una banda de black metal finlandesa formada en 1999. Originalmente creada como un proyecto en solitario por Shatraug, del grupo de black metal Horna. Trabajó con varios músicos desde 2000, que fueron posteriormente expulsados de la banda. Tras la grabación de la demo Tyranny Returns (2001), la formación cambió incorporándose a la misma Hoath Torog y Horns como vocalista y baterista respectivamente, y ha permanecido estable hasta la actualidad. En lo referente a la música y las letras, Sargeist se mantiene fiel a las raíces del black metal escandinavo de la vieja escuela. Sus composiciones tratan sobre satanismo, blasfemias anticristianas, así como sobre la oscuridad, la depresión, misantropía y odio. El nombre de la banda es una combinación de dos palabras alemanas, “sarg” (ataúd) y “geist” (espíritu, espectro), y deriva de la canción “The Old Coffin Spirit”, de la banda de black metal melódico griega Rotting Christ.
