The band was founded by guitarist Steve Janevski (ex-Cyclone Tracy) and bassist Cory Betts (ex-Pegazus).
After the release of a three track sampler album, they signed a five-album contract with German-based label, LMP Records.
Kymera's other guitarist Hanny Mohammed had recorded an album with a band called Catwitch who had been featured on a television documentary.
After a flirtation with the name Arkaya, the band began recording material but Betts then left and the group renamed itself Black Majesty.
The Sands of Time album was recorded in 2002 and prefaced by a three-track promo disc that gained them a five-album contract with German label LMP.
In the following months Black Majesty continued to display their prominence on the Australian Power Metal scene playing solo shows along with supporting Helloween in February.
Black Majesty started work on its fourth album in February 2009 for Limb Music Products.
