Nagelfar were founded in 1993 by guitarist Zorn and drummer Rykthius Von Meilenwald,

now known as Alexander Von Meilenwald.
It took until 1995 to get a stable line-up, by addition of Sveinn Von Hackelnberg on bass and Jander on vocals.
Together they recorded two demos, a split EP with the German band Dark Embrace,

as well as the two full length albums "Hünengrab Im Herbst" and "Srontgorrth".
With the production of "Srontgorrth", a concept album, they lost Hackelnberg and Jander.

Soon Zingultus (of Desecration, Graupel, Graven etc.) was found for vocal duties, but the band never found a bass player.
On the album "Virus West" that was released in 2001, Zorn and Meilenwald were forced to handled bass duties.
To date, this release is the last official one by Nagelfar.
In April 2002 the band called it quits when Zorn announced that he lacked energy and motivation to continue Nagelfar.
He and Meilenwald were always in agreement that Nagelfar would only exist if both of them were active,

so consequently the band was put to rest.
Alexander Von Meilenwald formed The Ruins Of Beverast shortly thereafter, while Zorn formed Simple Existenz and EgoNoir.
Sveinn Von Hackelnberg is the owner of Ván Records.
In 2009 "Srontgorrth" was re-issued by Ván Records with a bonus cd featuring demo versions 

and a debut album version of "Srontgorrth" plus 20 minutes "Srontgorrth Medley",

which was recorded for concerts featuring Zingultus on vocals.
