The band was formed in 1992 by a group of school friends (José Saxlund, Adam Nilsson, Jonas Lyxzén and Mattias Abrahamson), and began playing local shows and recording demos, taking its name from a lyric in Shelter ‘s debut album. After around a year the group recorded its debut EP, Darkness of Ignorance , released on Saxlund’s own record label (run by him and Dennis Lyxzén ), Desperate Fight Records. Shortly after the release of this EP, Kristofer Steen joined as a second guitarist, expanding the group to 5 members. In 1993 the band embarked on their first tour, with Refused in Norway . On the way to their last show in Kristiansund , the entourage crashed their two vehicles (a van and a car) and had to finish the journey by taxi.
