In the year of 1990 the sign of RUNEMAGICK started to take form. The first months it only existed as a one-man project formed by Nicklas "Terror" Rudolfsson inspired by bands like Bathory, Treblinka/Tiamat, Celtic Frost, Nihilist/Entombed, Candlemass… Some songs were recorded on an old Fostex 4-tracker machine and were only spread by tape trading. Then Robert "Reaper" Pehrsson joined as a permanent member on guitar and vocals. His vocals was more high-pitch so the material sounded quite Bathory inspired. With this 2 piece line up they recorded the first official demos during 1991-92. One demo called "Fullmoon Sodomy" was official released by the (rip off) label Chaos Productions (Swe). The band never received any copies but it got great response in the underground. The first gigs were made in 1992-93 with session members like Johan Norman (later in Dissection, Soulreaper) and Alex Losbäck (later in Cardinal Sin).
In 1993 the band almost signed a deal with an US label but suddenly the owner disappeared after rumours of being a rip off bastard. A bootleg demo and 7" vinyl of the "Fullmoon Sodomy" was released in Poland, no copies to the band. The rehearsal place was gone and there were hard problems to find permanent members. This was a year of total misery so Nicklas decided to put the band on ice for a while.
In 1997 it was time to resurrect the band again. After listening to the old tapes Nicklas decided to find new members and continue with RUNEMAGICK. The first new line up was Nicklas Rudolfsson - guitar/vocals, Fredrik Johnsson - guitar and Peter Palmdahl - bass (Dissection). A rehearsal demo with Nicklas on drums was recorded and sent to Century Media records since the band had to do so first because Nicklas already was signed as a person to the label via another band he played drums in during that time. A contract was signed and 3 albums were recorded for Century Media Records; "The Supreme Force Of Eternity", "Enter The Realm Of Death" and "Resurrection In Blood".
In 2000 after several line up changes and various problems RUNEMAGICK got a new steady line up: Nicklas Rudolfsson - guitar/vocals, Fredrik Johnsson - guitar, Emma Karlsson - bass and Daniel Moilanen on drums. The band parted ways with Century Media Records and in 2001 they released 2 vinyl's on new underground labels; "Dark Live Magick" LP (Bloodstone Entertainment) and "Ancient Incantations - old demo material" 7"EP (Aftermath Music). They also released a demo CDR called "Sepulchral Realms".
In the fall of 2001 RUNEMAGICK signed a deal with the Norwegian label Aftermath Music and started to record a new album called "Requiem Of The Apocalypse". The album was unleashed in March 2002 and got great reviews all around the world. There are also several license versions of this album released in countries like Poland, Brazil, Russia, Thailand…
In the summer of 2002 the band jammed out some new songs and recorded them in the rehearsal room / Magick Sound Studio as a demo recording. But the final result was so good that Aftermath Music decided to release it as a strictly limited album called "Moon Of The Chaos Eclipse". It was released in 1000 digi-pack CD and 300 10" pic-vinyl. The response on this release was also great even if no promo copies were sent out.
In the fall of 2002 RUNEMAGICK recorded some new demo songs and one of them called "Doomed" was released on a split 7"EP with Lord Belial called "Doomed By Death" on Aftermath Music in December 2002. One other song called "Eternal Dark" will be featured on a special album with the title "Death Magick" to be released in early 2003 by Brazen Music in North America.
In November 2002 the band started to record the first parts for the upcoming album "Darkness Death Doom" on Aftermath Music. This will be the heaviest material ever created by RUNEMAGICK. The album will be released in March 2003 on various formats! Be prepared for darkness!!!
