With the unique sound that draws on melodic death, doom, and power metal, the Colorado, USA melodic death metallers MIDGARD released two EPs and a web single to some acclaim between 2001 and 2005 before dissolving due to personal and scheduling differences. The band performed numerous shows culminating with the performance at Milwaukee Metalfest in 2002, while Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles magazine featured the track "Failure of Utopia" on its Knuckletracks compilation alongside such artists as DIO and MANOWAR.

In 2011, the band has been reactivated with the goal of continuing to make memorable and poignant music. The core of MIDGARD sound remains intact, with the powerful and varied vocals supplemented by haunting melodies and hard-edged guitar riffs, but now the band's songwriting is supplemented by a decade of experience, showcasing a mature yet heavy and aggressive sound.

Currently, MIDGARD is working on a comeback album for late 2011 release. As the first full-length record from the band, the songs on the album will showcase a decade of musical evolution, ranging from rapid-fire aggression to expansive epics all the while maintaining focus on memorable writing. With the wealth of writing and performing experience, the new record, tentatively scheduled for release in 2012 is bound to take MIDGARD's art to a new, deadlier and focused level.
