The Swedish black metal band Prophanity was formed in 1991 by singer Mathias "Farbaute" Jarrebring and guitarist Christer "Grendel" Olsson; after a series of name and line-up changes the group began to solidify in 1993 with the addition of drummer Anders "Wouthan" Malmstrom, and early the following year they recorded their first demo. A subsequent demo titled Messenger of the Northern Warrior Host soon followed, earning significant underground attention; a track was also featured on the "Sometimes d**h is Better 2, 3 & 4 compilation. After releasing the single "I Vargens Tecken (In the Sign of the Wolf)," Prophanity's ranks grew to include ba**ist Robert Lindmark and guitarist Nicklas Magnusson, and in the autumn of 1996 the group recorded the three-song The Battleroar. After releasing the 1998 LP Stronger Than Steel, Jarrebring left Prophanity, and was replaced by singer Carl-Johan Sorman. ~ Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
