Strid is a Norwegian black metal band that was originally known as "Malfeitor" from 1991 to 1992.
 After releasing two demos - "Malfeitor" (in 1991) and "Pandemonium" (in 1992), they changed their name to "Battle" and there were some line up changes at the time.
 In the year of 1992 the band released the "End of Life" demo.
 The demo contains only one song which is around 11 minutes.
 The line up at the time of recording the demo was: Storm - on bass and vocals, Lars Fredrik Bergstrøm - on guitars and Jardar - on drums.

 Through the years between 1993 and 1995, the band writes and records the self-titled EP which was released through Malicious Records and contains only two songs - "Det hviskes blant sorte vinder" which means "It Is Whispered Amid the Black Winds" in Norwegian and "Nattevandring" which means "Nightwandering" in Norwegian.
 The music style and sound of this demo is more ambient/atmospheric black metal oriented.
 Mainly because of this release, the band is commonly recognised as the creators of depressive black metal along with some other bands from the second wave of black metal music.
 At this time the band line up contains: Ravn Harjar - on guitars, Storm - on bass and vocals and Jardar - on drums.
 After the releasing of the self-titled EP, there was no any official releases by the band.

 In the year of 2007, the Greek label Kyrck Productions & Armour re-released all the previous material released by the band from the past which contains all "Malfeitor/Battle/Strid" material.

 Another member that was part of the reunion was Lars Fredrik Bergstrøm - the main composer of the "End of Life" track.
 In 2014 Lars Fredrik Bergstrøm died.
 At this time the band line up contains Ravn Harjar - on guitars and vocals, Vicotnik - on bass and Sigmund (ex-Inflabitan, ex-Dødheimsgard) - on guitars.
 In January 2015, Ravn Harjar wrote a statement on the official Strid Facebook page that in the autumn of the year 2015 the band will start recording their first full-length album which will be titled "Endetid".
 That means "End of times" in Norwegian.
