A Strangnas Death Metal act named after a MORBID ANGEL song and showing plenty of rennaissance Thrash influences. Originally titled TORMENT upon the band’s formation in 1994 by former HARMONY members drummer Kjell Enblom and guitarist Peter 'Flesh' Karlsson. The duo was soon joined by VINTERLAND guitarist Pehr Larsson.
The trio, still operating under the name HARMONY, recorded a demo which came to the attention of Deviation Records based in Scotland. Previously, HARMONY debuted with the January 1993 demo tape 'Blood Angels', following this with 'Until I Dream' that October then 'The Radiance From A Star' in 1994. The Arctic Serenades label issued a split album 'The Radiance From A Star', recorded in December of 1994 at Studio Skyline, shared with SERENADE during 1995. The band then switched titles to TORMENT for a three track demo. Upon signing to Corrosion Records the band title became MAZE OF TORMENT for the 1996 album ‘The Force’ produced by EDGE OF SANITY’s Dan Swano. The band line-up at this juncture comprising of vocalist / bassist Pehr Larsson, guitarist Peter Karlsson and drummer Kjell Enblom. Shortly after the release of ‘The Force’ a deal was struck with Thomas Nyqvist’s Iron Fist Productions for the sophomore outing ‘Faster Disaster’. Peter Janssen took over bass duties as Larsson concentrated on his lead vocal role.
Larsson would be replaced by Erik Sahlstrom of SERPENT OBSCENE and THE MARBLE ICON. Jansson too lost his place to Kalle Sjodin. MAZE OF TORMENT’s 2000 album ‘Death Strikes’, released by the American Necropolis label, was produced by Tomas Skogsberg.
MAZE OF TORMENT would be back for another round in March of 2002 with the Necropolis released ‘The Unmarked Graves’. Included would be a cover version of MISFITS ‘All Hell Breaks Loose’. However, by the close of the year the band severed ties with Necropolis and signed 'The Unmarked Graves', complete with new cover art, over to Hellspawn Records. Singapore based label Konqueror Records would also weigh in with a compilation of archive HARMONY material. During 2002 Karlsson fired up side project THE MORTICIAN DEAD, this unit evolving into DECEIVER.
The group suffered line-up changes in early 2004 as both Peter Karlsson and Kalle Sjodin took their leave, bowing out with a performance at the 'Inferno' festival in Norway. Karlsson duly prioritised DECEIVER. MAZE OF TORMENT signed to Black Lodge Records in June of 2004. Cutting a new album, 'Hammers Of Mayhem', the membership was built back up to strength with the acquisition of guitarist Viktor Hemgren, of LUCIEN, MANEGARM and SORG, second guitarist Rickard Dahlin, also ex-SORG, and bassist Cloffe Caspersson, a seasoned campaigner of acts such as VEINS OF SUFFERING, QUILMESS and AFTERBURNERZ plus being a familiar voice as DJ on Stockholm's Rockklassiker. The band introduced new guitarist Magnus Lindvall, of SOILS OF FATE, in June 2005.
Billed as FLESH, ex-MAZE OF TORMENT guitarist Peter Karlsson recorded a solo album, 'Dodsangest', that same year on Gothenburg label Iron Fist Productions.
