In early August 1999, Draconian entered Studio Kuling to record The Closed Eye of Paradise, an album that dealt with the mystical dark theme of Lucifer and his fallen angels, the true face of God, and the forthcoming battle. Unfortunately, the band quickly grew discontent with the sound quality of the recording and decided not to release it. At the end of January 1997, Draconian recorded their second demo, In Glorious Victory. Over the next months, Draconian worked diligently on new material that eventually found its way to their first demo Shades of a Lost Moon which was released in February 1996. Seven months later, lead vocalist and poet Anders Jacobsson joined the band, which then changed its name to what it is today. The beginning of Sweden’s Draconian can be traced back to May 1994, when Johan Ericson (drums, vocals), Andy Hindenäs (guitars) and Jesper Stolpe (bass, vocals) joined forces as Kerberos, a melodic death metal ensemble with black metal influences.
