Eucharist "A Velvet Creation (2001 Reissue, Sweden, Regain Records, RR 004-AS)"

Eucharist was a Swedish melodic death metal band which released two albums in the 1990s.

Eucharist was founded in Veddige, a small city about 40 km from Gothenburg, Sweden, some time around 1989. A demo released in 1992 became a classic in the metal underground. It was titled Greeting Immortality. The same year, Obscure Plasma Records released the Greeting Immortality 7" (without the consent of the band), and in 1993 the band recorded a song named "The View" for a Deaf Records (Peaceville Records) compilation album called Deaf Metal Sampler. Afterwards, the band suddenly split up.

But soon after, Wrong Again Records asked them to re-unite and sign a deal, which they did. Eucharist entered the studio and recorded their first album A Velvet Creation, which was released in 1993, with the cover misprinted in the wrong color. In the summer of 1994, two songs, "Wounded and Alone" and "The Predictable End", were recorded for a compilation album released by Wrong Again Records entitled, W.A.R. Compilation vol 1, released in 1995.

The band split up several times - they first "took a break" in summer 1991, then split-up in 1993 before reuniting when Wrong Again Records offered them a record deal. They recorded two tracks for compilations in 1994, then split-up again. They returned a final time to record Mirrorworlds in 1997 with Daniel and Markus composing the music and a friend playing bass in the studio. They split-up on good terms in 1998 for the final time.

In December 2015, the band announced that they will reunite for a one-off very special show taking place in Varberg, Sweden on the 16th of April 2016, the first live appearance in 18 years.

Eucharist's first album, A Velvet Creation (1993), featured Markus Johnsson (vocals, guitar), Thomas Einarsson (guitar), Tobias Gustafsson (bass guitar), and Daniel Erlandsson (drums).
