The Gothic rock band Scheitan consists of Pierre Törnkvist (vocals/guitars/bass/keyboards/programming). Additional musicians in the band throughout the years has been producer/engineer Göran Norman, bassist Andreas Johansson and vocalist Lotta Hogberg. Scheitan has released three studio albums to date. While the first album was black metal in style the band has evolved over time and now plays gothic rock, or gothic metal. After the 1999 release of Nemesis the band went into a hiatus for 24 years before releasing three singles in 2023 ("Lost in time", "Fire at dawn" and the Billy Idol cover "White wedding").
Albums
"Travelling in Ancient Times" (1996)
"Berzerk 2000" (1998)
"Nemesis" (1999)
In 1996, Scheitan recorded one song, "Devastating heaven", for a demo. They sent this demo to the German record label Invasion Records. Invasion Records signed the band for two albums and late 1996 saw the release of the first album "Travelling in ancient times" consisting of eight tracks of black metal. The band members however, never considered Scheitan as a black metal band, more like a musical project whose style would change over time. Hence, the second album, "Berserk 2000", was a mixture of dark gothic rock and dark ambient music finishing off with three furious black metal tracks. After the release of their second album, Scheitan signed to Century Media and recorded " Nemesis". After the album release the band performed live at the 1999 edition of Wave-Gotik-Treffen in Leipzig, Germany, before going into a 24-year hiatus.
Drummer Oscar Karlsson tragically died in March 2016.
In March 2023 vocalist and multi-instrumentalist Pierre Törnkvist resurrected Scheitan and released a new single, "Lost in time". Two more singles, "Fire at dawn" and the Billy Idol cover "White wedding" was released in the later months of 2023. During the year the band also signed with Greek label The Circle Music.
