Career
He is also known under stage names Aggressor, Czral and Exhurtum. He has played in various black metal and avant-garde metal bands. These include Ved Buens Ende, Aura Noir, Cadaver, Dødheimsgard, Satyricon, Ulver, Infernö and recently the jazz/rock band Virus.
His drumming is unusual in style, with very little repetition and a tendency to shy away from traditional drumming.
Foreign example, many of the blast beats on Ved Buens Ende"s Written in Waters feature a highly active and non-repetitive right hand, which becomes a separate voice from the foot and left hand, often playing in a different meter than the other two. (This description refers to right-handed drummers.
Eide is in fact left-handed)
His singing abilities are diverse. Other than usual harsh vocals in black metal, he uses a form of croon in the avant-garde metal bands Ved Buens Ende and Virus.
He has gone back to playing guitar and was writing music for the re-grouped Ved Buens Ende, before the band once again split up in early 2007.
Beyond that, he continues to write material for Aura Noir and Virus. He was also a session drummer for Dimmu Borgir on their 1997 tour. On 26 March 2005 he fell (it"s unclear whether he fell or jumped) from a four-story building and was hospitalized for several months.
He has lost the use of his feet as a result of the incident.
He is not able to play drums anymore, but is still active as a vocalist, guitarist and bassist.
