Formed in 2004 by Johannes Söderqvist, they recorded a 5-track EP Memento Mori in the summer of 2005, which a reviewer dubbed 'forest-rock', a genre title which has been associated with their music ever since. They see this as a shorter way to say 'Really heavy folk rock with influences of both Scandinavian and Celtic folk music, with a touch of prog, stoner and psychedelica'. Their 2007 full-length Skogsrock was released on their own label Earth n Wood and was distributed by the giants of Scandinavian prog Record Heaven.
