One of numerous groups involved in establishing the very melodic style now known as the Gothenburg Sound, Eucharist did not fare particularly well in the face of the era's stiff competition, resulting in personnel eventually joining rival bands.
Most notably, original bass guitarist Gustaffsson joined the power metal band Armageddon, and drummer Erlandsson worked for a time with Gothenburg scene leaders In Flames before settling in permanently with Arch Enemy.
Eucharist entered the studio and recorded their first album A Velvet Creation, which was released in 1993, with the cover misprinted in the wrong color.
In 1996, Johnsson and Erlandsson started working with Eucharist again and they were instantly offered a deal by WAR Music (a new label risen from the ashes of Wrong Again Records) and the album, Mirrorworlds, released in 1997 was the result.
