The essence of Trident begun when Johan Norman (Soul reaper, Dissection) and Alexander Friberg (Jaggernaut, Karneywar) were discussing music ideas at a bar in 2007.
After a lot of line-up changes, the band realized the debut album in 2010 through Regain Records entitled World Destruction receiving high praises from critics around the globe.
At the dawn of 2012 Alexander and Tobias left to focus on Necrophobic while at the time Trident had a great number of riffs and songs to polish for the upcoming album which actually made the band member recruit process less stressed..
After a full year of working on the new material, Defiler was recruited as the new Trident spokesman
