Temnozor (Russian: Темнозорь) is a Pagan Metal band formed in 1996 in Obninsk, Russia. According to the band in statements on its website, it was formed to express the pride its members had of being Slavic. Temnozor started out as a raw black metal band with folk influences, but folk music has increasingly played a part in their music throughout their later albums. Their lyrics include Slavic pagan andanti-Christian themes.

They have played live several times over the years, most recently at the "White Thunder Roars Over Europe" tour in 2009 with Kroda.

In 2010, the band was to play in Roermond, on the Azijnfabriek stage, which sparked some controversy. The local mayor Van Beers has asked the national intelligence agency (the AIVD) to research the case. The stage has stated to not allow the band to play if they are judged by AIVD to be a risk^[1]. According to the News article, the band is considered to have extreme right-wing ideals. On the 4th of January, the show was cancelled!!!!
