Seance was a Swedish death metal band. The band was formed in March 1990 with the fusion of two local Linköping bands Orchriste and Total Death both which were formed in early 1987. They split up after two albums in 1998.
The Church's third album, Seance, was a somewhat unexpected about-face from The Blurred Crusade's jangling psychedelia and upbeat rock. Considerably more atmospheric and brooding in feel, the songwriting employed a greater emphasis on keyboard and string effects with the guitars taking largely textural roles on some songs. While numerous tracks have become fan favorites over the years, the album saw considerably less success in Australia than previous releases and had limited exposure internationally.
