Stefan Roigk is a multi-disciplinary artist living in Germany 

who deals with the borders between sound collages, sculptures, installations, film and graphical scores.
His artistic strategy lays in the combination of different types of media to one single composition.
Skalp is another project of Stefan Roigk (also involved in Keimbefall, Kenotaph, Religious Vision and some other bands), which offers dark and apocalyptic industrial, nicely arranged with totally distorted singing, church-chorales, 

effected synths and slow pounding rhythms with a slight deep-end orchestral feel.
The EP was released on a limited edition of 600 hand numbered copies on milky-white/clear vinyl in a foldout sleeve.

Arranged and recorded in September 1995 and released by Tesco Organisation label.

Raise Hell and Sins Of Omission guitarist Jonas Nilsson also participated in an early line-up.

Far Beyond Human Productions released their second demo, "Battle Of Titans" featuring guitarist Peter Wendin, in 1996. 

A third demo that released in 1997 entitled "Running Out Of Time", included a cover version of Kreator's "Take Their Lives".
The group then recorded tracks during 1998 for an intended full length album, 

given the title "Masters Of The Universe", but this was never released. 

For this album the band did not hesitate to even use "The Ecstasy Of Gold" theme by Ennio Morricone 

(part of his score for the Sergio Leone film "The Good, The Bad And The Ugly") on the track "Deathriders".
Mortifer's final effort, the single track promotional session "Harbringer Of Horror", emerged in 1999.
Their final roster involved Heinous, Dementor (Danny Eideholm) and drummer Devastator (Dennis Ekdahl).
