There are multiple artists known by the name Tellurian. Tellurian was a short-lived obscure early metal band from Buckinghamshire, UK formed in 1980. They had rather heavy sound for the early 80s combining brooding Black Sabbath/Witchfinder General-style doom metal with delicious nwobhm guitarwork and with considerable songwriting skill. Tellurian was comprised of Steve Cowerd on vocals, Richard Haines (guitar), Jon Newport (bass) and Dave White (drums).
