Weapon (band)
Weapon was a Canadian black/death metal band formed by frontman Vetis Monarch in Calgary, Alberta in 2003. History After the formation of the band, Vetis temporarily moved to his birthplace of Dhaka, Bangladesh to record the ''Within the Flesh of the Satanist'' demo tape and the ''Violated Hejab'' EP. He moved back to Canada in 2005 and relocated Weapon to Edmonton. Weapon signed with Relapse Records in 2011 and released their label debut, ''Embers and Revelations'', in 2012.

Canadian Black Metal Musical Groups
Canadians (french: Canadiens) are people identified with the country of Canada. This connection may be residential, legal, historical or cultural. For most Canadians, many (or all) of these connections exist and are collectively the source of their being ''Canadian''. Canada is a multilingual and multicultural society home to people of groups of many different ethnic, religious, and national origins, with the majority of the population made up of Old World immigrants and their descendants. Following the initial period of French and then the much larger British colonization, different waves (or peaks) of immigration and settlement of non-indigenous peoples took place over the course of nearly two centuries and continue today. Elements of Indigenous, French, British, and more recent immigrant customs, languages, and religions have combined to form the culture of Canada, and thus a Canadian identity. Canada has also been strongly influenced by its linguistic, geographic, and ec ...
