Ceremonial Oath
Ceremonial Oath is a Swedish death metal band formed in 1989. They were originally called Desecrator, but changed their name to Ceremonial Oath in 1991 and disbanded in 1996. During their initial existence they released three demos, one EP and two studio albums. Several of the band members would later create or join bands that would achieve greater success such as In Flames and HammerFall, a band that would greatly influence the awakened interest in power metal and traditional heavy metal.
Ceremonial Oath reunited for an appearance at the inaugural edition of The Gothenburg Sound festival on January 5–6, 2013 at Trädgår'n in Gothenburg, and also made appearances on a few other festivals later the same year. In addition to that, a remixed and remastered version of their 1993 album The Book of Truth was re-released in the beginning of 2013. Other than reuniting for a string of shows, Ceremonial Oath has no plans to record or release any new material.
