==Biography==
The band was formed under the name Secret Attack in 1987 and played death metal. In 1989 they changed the name to Necromance, and toured Europe in the early 1990s with Demigod and Lubricant.〔 After recruiting a keyboard player to its line up, the band began playing gothic metal in 1992.〔 Necromance released a split-cd with Enslaved (Ger) in 1991 and the demos ''Slow Death'' (1991), ''The Dwarf'' (1992), split-cd ''Zander'' 1993, and a demo called ''The Parable of the Weed'' (1994). In 1993 at one concert, a group of right-wing extremists attacked the band and murdered the band's driver, Mike Zerna.〔 During 1994 two members left Necromance, and the band became Christian.〔 Their line up was: Sandra (vocals, guitar), René (synthesizer), Mike (guitar) Runhardt (vocals, guitar).
Necromance recorded their first album ''White Gothic'' in 1997. After the release, they signed a record deal with Pleitegeier Records. In 1999, they released ''Wiederkehr der Schmerzen'' on this label. The album incorporated more industrial elements. Later in 2001, these elements became more apparent on their sound when they recorded the album ''Tribulation Force''. For the recording line up, the band was joined by Raphaela Polterman for vocals, and Jean Schulze returned as a drummer. The album was produced by Mozart and Lutz Demmler of the German gothic and industrial metal band Umbra et Imago. The album's production was more expensive than on their previous works, and according to the band, ''Tribulation Force'' did not receive any marketing from the label. As a result, Necromance sold all their instruments to cover the costs and disbanded in April 2002.
Since then the band has not released new material. Their website has gone offline but few years ago the band gave their first two albums as free downloads on their site. However, on December 23, 2007 the band launched an official MySpace page.
