Numinous came into being anno 2002 and recorded a demo during the next year which was released by Northern Heritage Records in the same year. This produced nothing fruitful really so the band mainly concentrated on their service in other non-musical fronts instead. After several obstacles, including prison sentence, Numinous recorded their first full-length album in 2010 which came out in the summer of 2011. The response was, again, rather non-existent. Being somewhat fed up with the lack of results, the years that followed were again spent focusing on other activities, which produced concrete results for their God. Then in 2014 both members were sentenced to relatively long imprisonment. In the end of 2017 the EP "Bellum in Terris" was recorded and released the following year.

Numinous' sole purpose is to serve, worship, glorify and channel the contra-divinity of the Creator - the Divine author of all evil, their unnameable Lord and God.

Although the music that Numinous has done thus far could be categorized as black metal, they have nothing to do with its vast majority ideologically or culturally.
