In 1994 the first album was recorded and puzzeled people as it did not sound at all like all the other bands that were popping up everywhere, and by this divided the real headbangers from the trend children.

In 1997 the second album "Devil's Force" was recorded and spread darkness over the world with it's cruel and morbid sound.

2000 the third studio album "Servants of Darkness" was released. Of course in the same style as always before but this time with an even more dark atmosphere!

After "Servants of Darkness" the band decided to create a new line up consisting of five members to be able to play live. And so they did, the band soon got famous for being one of the most intense live acts with a show filled over the the top with spikes studs leather blood fire and death!
