Runemagick

Runemagick is a Swedish doom death metal band. They started out as a pure death metal band but later incorporated more and more doom metal incluences. The band was started in 1990 by Nicklas "Terror" Rudolfsson under the name Desiderius which was quickly changed to Runemagic. After a few demos the band fall apart. Rudolfsson restored Runemagic in 1997 and added the "k" to the name. Started in late 1990 with mid-tempo death/doom/black kind of metal style inspired by old death and black metal bands like Celtic Frost, Bathory, Autopsy, Hellhammer, Tiamat… The music has developed over the years as a result of several line-up changes, many recording sessions and releases. With the album “Darkness Death Doom” (2002) and the current line-up, Runemagick finally shaped an own style and forged the formulas of darkness, death and doom -metallic sounds, influenced by old death/black metal roots mixed with mid/slow heavy groove and apocalyptic soundscapes. The line-up has been stable since fall of 2002 with Nicklas Rudolfsson - guitars & voice, Emma Rudolfsson - bass and Daniel “Mojjo” Moilanen on drums.
