Weltschmerz (from the German, meaning world-pain or world-weariness) is a term coined by the German author Jean Paul and denotes the kind of feeling experienced by someone who understands that physical reality can never satisfy the demands of the mind.The Dutch gentlemen that make up the band Weltschmerz felt that this moniker suited their brand of Black Metal perfectly.

 After releasing several demos and the addition of guitarist Eitr in 2012, Weltschmerz released its first full-length album in 2014 entitled Odium Humani Generis through Immortal Frost Productions. The band has since then been taking Europe by storm with live appearances in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Denmark, Czech Republic, Germany and Switzerland.

Illustra Nos (or Sun of Justice) is the band's second full length that opens up to a bit more experimenting with the use of strings and brass. While Weltschmerz still bring all the savage black metal remiscient of the 90's, they have found their own unique sound with this record.
