History & Biography
The band was founded by singer Mathias and guitarist Christer in 1991 and became active in 1993. Demo #1 was issued in 1994. Messenger Of The Northern Warrior Host was issued in the same year. A 7” EP, called I Vargens Tecken, in 1995. 1996 was a bad year after having equipment stolen and losing its rehearsal space. The next demo was 1997’sThe Battleroar. Blackend put the band on the Hymns To The Fallen compilation in 1998 and signed the act.

Stronger Than Steel was issued in the spring of 1998. It was produced by Andy La Rocque at Los Angered Recording. The band was heard on the label’s Hymns To The Fallen compilation of 1999 and duly split up. The band attempted a comeback with singer and bassist Patrick Johansson, who was in The Rapture with Magnusson and later in The Returning, but that did not pan out. Magnusson, who had left due to his travel time, had briefly returned. Immemoreal was signed with Blackend nonetheless.

The group played shows with the likes of The Ancients Rebirth and Thyrfing.
