the band was formed in 1995 by bjoern (g), johan (b) and franz (d). back then we played covers from bands like deliverance, die happy and seventh angel. pretty soon we changed drummer to haakon, gained another guitarist in jimmie (bjoern's and johan's cousin). bjoern wrote a couple of songs that we practiced together with the cover material. bjoern left the band to play with leiny and petter put on his guitar and joined the band. in 1996 johan were away studying the bible in stockholm and we got hubertus as a stand in. until this point we haven't had any singer. were could we find one? we tried with mattias (moll flanders) but the great voice he had didn't suite the style of music we played. then jonas joined us and we recorded our first demo in studio in 1998. after that we wrote a couple of new songs with a touch of living sacrifice, meshuggah and sepultura. somewhere around this time petter left the band for crimson moonlight and ulf (defaid) took his place for a while. then bjoern rejoined but as a guest star in the band, jonas left his place for samuel in 1999. a full-lenght studio album was released in 2002. thanks to everyone ever been in touch with us and helped us becoming the band we are today!
