The band was created in Jan 2000. The members back then were Niklas Svensson, Tobias Olsson and Johan Blomstrom. In June 2000 the recording of the first demo, Painreceiver, started and the band got two new members Christoffer Nilsson (drums)and Annika Haptén(Vocals). Later this summer Staffan Franzén got the job as bassplayer. After the recording of the demo they did some gigs, but none of the members really cared about the band. Due to lack of interest the band was put on ice... Six months after not rehearsing at all, the drummer Christoffer decided to leave the band. Staffan then made the decision of changing from bass to drums. When this happend, Johan and Tobias started to make new riffs again. They got a new bassplayer, Roy Erlandsson. After the reconstruction of the band, Annika had to leave Stigmata since the change of musicstyle, there was simply no room for female vocals. In 2002 Tribute to Chaos was released. The second democd. Here is where the band did a huge step into the metalscene! This cd opened up the whole world! Scarlet Records got so excited that they chose to sign the band. At this time they were forced to change name. Stigmata was already taken. From now on they go by the name Blinded Colony. The debute album was released 25th of September 2003 in Japan and 6th of October in the rest of the world. Now BC is working on the second one. The songs are almost ready...
