 They decided that the band would only exist while both of them were members.The first steady lineup was established in 1995, when bass player Sveinn Hackelnberg joined and Jander replaced vocalist Smaug.This lineup recorded the band's first demo, "Als die Tore sich öffnen" ("As the Gates Open") in late 1995 as a rehearsal production, and their second demo, "Jagd" ("Hunt"), in October 1996 in a semi-professional 8-track studio.
