Aside from all three being members of the black metal band Emperor, I can at least tell you that "Tchort" is the Russian name for Satan.-- Nanaea

You're welcome. You'll find Tchort mention in Anton LaVey's *The Satanic Bible* -- in the section titled "The Infernal Names".Lot of great names in that list for band members. ;)-- Nanaea

I don't know where the information came from, but apart for Tchort being Russian, the others are names of demons/devils.As I said, I don't know just where I saw this infomation.

I still haven't found out where i saw a listing for the names being connected with demons, etc.But i did find SAMOTH and TRYM connected with a heavy metal band that looks to be from germany, and the band looks to be a satanic band, possibly on the line of kiss.Trym also looks to connected with the town of Bristol in England, possibly a river.
