Old Man’s Child was brought to life in Norway back in 1993. But things started to happen a couple of years earlier, back in 1989 to be precise. In that year Galder and Tjodalv started a band that mainly played covers of Metallica and Slayer. Under the name Requiem they released a self titled demo in 1993, which was only printed in 50 copies. The demo was very influenced by the death metal scene that flourished at that moment.

Earthlings beware
Under a fading sun you will await the new age
Earthlings behold
The birth of a new dawn, the sign of damnation
The rage of magic thunder
The storms of magic fire
Rumbles through the sky
Again his wrath shall rule this earth
As foreseen in the genesis of death
The earthlings' paradise
Come watch as it dies, destruction of mankind
Enter the realms of sin
And in to the dark voids of hell
