thrash metal band fromSweden . The group changed names several times in their early history; their first demo, 1997's "Nailed", was released under the name In Cold Blood, which they abandoned for Raise Hell after signing withNuclear Blast while still in their teens. After the album's release the group toured Europe with, among others, Dismember andChildren of Bodom .

It was followed by a tour with Destruction. After further touring and appearances at theWacken Open Air Festival , the group returned to the studio in 2002 for "Wicked Is My Game". Lead singer/guitarist Jonas Nilsson left the group in February 2003 and was replaced by Jimmy Fjällendahl (ex-Driftaway ) soon after.
