Diabolical Breed released “Compendium Infernus” through World Chaos Productions, Japan in 2005. Ole Alexander Myrholt played the drums.
Enslavement of Beauty was formed in January 1995 by Ole Alexander Myrholt (vocals & lyrics) and Tony Eugene Tunheim (guitars & composing).
The band spent the subsequent years composing and recording material and thereby developed their expression.
In the summer of 1998, Enslavement of Beauty recorded the demo CD "Devilry and Temptation" which gained them a deal with Head Not Found / Voices of Wonder.
This resulted in the 1999 release "Traces o' Red" which received very positive response.
In November 2000, the band headed back to the studio to record their second album, "Megalomania", accompanied by drummer Asgeir Mickelson (Borknagar/Spiral Architect etc) and bass player Hans-Åge Holmen. Musically the band still sounded very melodic and deeply inspired by classical music but with a sharper metal edge.
After a 6 year hiatus the band returned with their third album "Mere Contemplations" which was released through Norwegian independent label INRI Unlimited.
The bands last effort was the 2009 release, "The Perdition EP", which was supported by the bands first official promovideo.
The promovideo for the EP track "Lush" won best music video at the Stavanger Short Film Festival autumn 2009.
Enslavement of Beauty is now defunct but released the 1998 demo "Devilry and Temptation" digitally in February 2017 as a gesture to the fans.
Hellhaven was formed somewhere on tour when Lasse Jensen and Ole Alexander Myrholt decided to team up after doing session duties for Norwegian Power Metal band Gaia Epicus.

Hellhaven changed name to The Flame Within in 2016. Work on the debut album started fall 2016 and contunues into 2017. Baard Kolstad joined on drums.

The Flame Within is currently working on material expected to be released in 2017.
Those Left Behind was formed by Ole Alexander Myrholt in February 2010 with the sole purpose of paying tribute to the bands of the past that participated in shaping the genre.
The debut album, "Horror Classics - and other tributes to the Darkside" was released by Horror Pain Gore Death Productions in 2011 and confirmed the agenda, presenting regressive and severely downtuned death metal, heavily inspired by horror and gore.
Those Left Behind promises absolutely no seven stringed guitars, no triggers nor keyboards. And yeah, clicktracks are banned.
The "Residing in a Pile of Maggots" digital single was released in September 2015.
“Residing in a Pile of Maggots” was released as an audio cassette with bonus tracks in 2016.
The digital single “The Corpse Vanishes” was the first in a series of monthly digital singles preparing for the TBA release of “Another Attempt at Mental Mutilation”.
