Gates Of Ishtar
Formed in Luleå, Sweden in late 1992 under the name Disrupt, Gates of Ishtar released three albums in rapid succession between 1996 and 1998 — A Bloodred Path, The Dawn of Flames, and At Dusk and Forever — each on Invasion Records and each regarded as classics of the Gothenburg melodic death metal sound. Their music blended the iron-fisted melody of early In Flames and At the Gates with icy black metal atmosphere. The band disbanded in the late 1990s but reunited in 2015, though they have been on hold since 2019.
