After a few years, their sound gradually became more melodic and by the time they released the first album they were playing power metal. Mattias Bernhardsson played keyboards on the first two albums on a session basis before being added to the official line-up for \"The Sacred Talisman\", \"Afterlife\" and \"Shadowland\", after which he left. Keyboards are now for the most part played by Henrik Kjellberg. Fredrik Mannberg played lead guitar until Nils Norberg joined the band. He has almost exclusively played rhythm since then.
