Cult of Luna is an atmospheric sludge/doom metal/post-metal/post-hardcore band formed in 1998 in Umeå, Sweden by guitarist/vocalist Johannes Persson and vocalist Klas Rydberg, after the Swedish hardcore band Eclipse broke up. It began as a traditional sludge band and has slowly integrated greater degrees of post-rock into its sound. After some member hunting and rehearsals CoL had its first line-up consisting of: Klas Rydberg, Johannes Persson, Magnus Lindberg, Erik Olofsson and Fredrik Renstrom. After a short period of time, Fredrik had to leave due to some personal difficulties. 2000 - Cult of Luna / Switchblade (split with Switchblade) 2001 - Cult of Luna 2001 - Cult of Luna EP (EP) 2003 - The Beyond 2004 - Salvation 2006 - Bodies / Recluse (single) 2006 - Somewhere Along the Highway 2008 - Eternal Kingdom 2009 - Fire Was Born (video) 2010 - Eviga riket (book/DVD) 2010 - Live at the Scala 2013 - Vertikal 2013 - Vertikal II (EP) 2014 - Eternal Music (vinyl-only release of the songs from Eviga riket) 2015 - Råångest (split with The Old Wind) 2016 - Mariner (collaboration with Julie Christmas) 2017 - Live at La Gaîté Lyrique: Paris 2017 - Years in a Day (Box-set of live performances) 2019 - A Dawn to Fear 2021 - The Raging River (EP) 2022 - The Long Road North
