[edit] History
Realm formed in 1985 and released two underground demo tapes; Perceptive Incentive demo in 1985 and the landmark Final Solution demo in 1986. In 1988, they signed to the up-and-coming Roadrunner Records label and released their first album Endless War. The album featured a classic cover version of The Beatles's song "Eleanor Rigby" that they converted into speed metal.
In 1990, Realm released their much anticipated follow-up album entitled Suiciety, which showed them having more of a unique progressive sound. After fulfilling their 2-album deal with Roadrunner, the band searched for a new label. They recorded another album's worth of material but it to this day remains unreleased.
In 1992, the band broke up and the albums Endless War and Suiciety were digitally remastered and re-released worldwide under the Metal Mind Productions/Roadrunner Records label.
