CONQUEST

In the year of 1986 the band Conquest was formed by Johnny Georgsson (guitar) and Bosse Georgsson (drums). Micke sundqvist (Vocal/bass) joined the band. After a while Bosse left and Stefan Jansson (Kingcover) took over the drums. Many gigs in the local area where made and, a two song demo, "Bad Girls", was recorded in the beginning of 1990.

In 1995 the band was put on ice due to dissagreements of what kind of music Conquest should play and Johnny left and took the name with him. Late 97 Johnny and Daniel Ljung (bass) started the band again, with Thunaraz, (guitar) a member of the black metal band Blot Mine (ex setherial memb.) Then Micke and Bosse joined again, Conquest was formed again.

This far a second demo was recorded, "Glory of Death", and Micke left again after that. He thought Conquest had become to heavy for him. He also had the Cover band Kingcover, that plays old 70´s-80´s rock songs. As the band had no longer a vocalist, Conquest searched a long time for a new vocalist and found Grim, (ex drummer of the doom metal band Darklands), and saw that he fitted in just perfect in the band. But the trouble wasn´t over with that... Bosse didn´t have the time for Conquest and in the beginning of 98, a new drummer, Jonas Brändstöm, joined. Thunaraz didn´t have the time also, becouse he had Blot Mine and he writes the music for that band, so he left to, but then a guitarist with the name Daniel Sahlin-Nilsson saw Conquest at their first gig for a long time in Pipeline, Sundsvall, and he was interested in playing with Conquest, so Daniel asked the band if ihe could play with them, and during the summer of 98 Conquest was a full band once again.

In oktober Conquest recorded their third demo "Dragonlord". With that demo they got some attantion of recordlabels, but nothing happened. The band had a couple of gigs in Sundsvall (music city of 99) one at a festival called "Gatufesten" with bands like LIONS SHARE (SWE). Conquest also did a support act for SAXON (ENG) in Sundsvall to mention a few band.


INFERIAH

Formed in dec 2001, The band was formerly known as Conquest, but after 16 years in the undergroundscene the founder of Conquest Johnny decided to go in another musical direction, and that was the end of that story!


Daniel (guitar), Jonas (drums) and Ljung (bass) wanted to continue as a band but with another name and new songs, so Daniel presented a few songs and they all agreed on the approach to the music and continued working with Daniels musical ideas.

A few months later Stefan (guitar) joined in and about a year later up until now with songwriting and search for a suitable vocalist, a demo is about to be finished...

Inferiah´s music is a mixture of various styles of metal with it´s root in "heavy metal".
