Ewiges Reich - Thron aus Eis (2003)

 

Ewiges Reich was founded in 1999 by guitarist SM, singer Maldoror and drummer FMH. The self-titled debut album was released in 2001 on Perverted Taste. In 2002 they released an EP with the German band Jerusalem Est Perdita (also from Kassel) and Totenburg (Gera) and the album Zeit des Awakenings. In 2003 they released a split album with the German band Totenburg. In the same year their third work, Thron aus Eis, was released, which was a bit more catchy. Their last work, ...Nur frei bei Nacht, was released in 2015.

SM passes away in a bike accident on March 24th, 2015.

In 2016 the band split up.

Apart from Ewiges Reich, the band members also participated in many other bands. Ulfsdalir had a solo project of the same name, in which he was supported by drummer FMH and Malthökk. He had a solo project called Myrkwid and played with Pestnebel. Guitarist SM also led a solo project called Schattenheer. TW also played with Panzerfaust and Death Ordeal.
