Karkadan was founded in 1997, inspired by the upcoming extreme metal acts of this time, to create its own style of extreme metal. The line up at this time consisted of Robby Beyer (Vocals), Thomas Reeß (Drums), Felix Moosmann (Bass), Florian Spannagel and Daniel Pütz (Guitars). Working on their mixture of heavy metal and extreme black / death metal vocals, the band entered the studio for the first time in 1999. The Maranis Studios (Sanvoisen, Sadian, Nocte Obducta, Fallen Yggdrasil) were chosen to record the debut album Eternal Black Reflections in December 1999.
