Around 1994-1995, In the Woods... were one of the first bands to use the name "Pagan Metal" as a description for their style, although they didn't use the elements typified by the sub-genre until later on (like traditional instruments). When giving interviews for magazines, In the Woods... provided forest photos to be used instead of band photos, causing much confusion to magazine editors.
