Sundsvall´s
most brutal death-metal band was started in november -94 by Roger
Lagerlund (Drums) and Göran Johansson (Guitar/Vocals). Then from
the ashes of nothing our bassplayer Johan Kempe was introduced in
the band. Since we where missing a second guitarist, we asked a
friend of Johan, who joined the band with great entusiasm.
Although his emotions for our brutal music died, right after our
first demo
"Let There Be Darkness"

Although the
guitarists name appears on the democover, we won´t print his
name here.
The reason why we hate him is: Right after "Let There Be
Darkness" he totally gave a shit about the band.
Soon we
realised that we really needed a new guitarist and a rumour of a
great guitarist reached us. In summer -95 Johan Ohlsson joined us
in the War against the Plague!!! We also realised that another
vocalist would maximize the effect of our total brutality, and
soon Jonas Burvall also joined us.
In december/january -95/-96 we recorded our second demo. Faster, harder and a shitload of total destruction. "Winter Goddess" is, without question, True Impious Brutality!!!

Despite the
lack of soundquality, the music still is a masterpice of dark,
brutal Deathmetal!
In the fall of -96 our new vocalist was literally kicked in the ass. Burvall had left rehearsing behind him and didn´t show up unless we screamed at him. That kind of behaviour can NOT be tolerated. We kicked his ass out of the band so hard...
Warning! We have nothing to do with IMPIOUS ( trollhättan ) !
