Forming in 1992, Godgory started their career covering bands such as Napalm Death, Entombed, Cemetary, Unleashed, and Grave.
One label wanted to sign Godgory for a full-length CD, so the band returned to Unisound in November 1994 and, in one weekend, recorded their debut album Sea of Dreams.
Upon release, Shadow's Dance received very good reviews and ended up on the 7th place on the Rockhards Dynamite list.
After Godgory had recorded Shadow's Dance, Erik and Matte decided to let go of three members: Mikael Dahlqvist (guitars), Fredric Danielsson (bass), and Thomas Heder (keyboards).
Two years after the release of Resurrection, Godgory entered Studio Fredman to record their fourth album, Way Beyond, with renowned producer Fredrik Nordström.
Mikael Dahlqvist, Thomas Heder, and Fredrik Olsson again joined the band on a session basis, along with World of Silence member Henrik Lindström on guitars and bass.
