Merciless is a Swedish extreme metal band. The band was formed during the summer of 1986 in Strngns, Sweden by Erik Wallin (guitar), Fredrik Karlén (bass guitar) and Stefan Carlsson (drums). They were inspired by the early fast-playing bands such as Kreator, Sodom, Destruction and Bathory.[1] First they did some local gigs as “Obsessed” and “Black Mass” but changed their name to Merciless in early 1987. A demo was recorded titled , which led to the replacement of Kle by Rogga in early 1988.[2] With this line-up they recorded a second demo in June 1988. This demo drew the attention of Deathlike Silence Productions – the label of Euronymous.[3] That label released their debut album in March 1990.
