Brotherhood (brotherhood)

Spirit of Rage's Swedish-rooted ASCII project, active 1998-1999 with a handful of packs. The January 1999 pack came off a brief merger with Vii ("we merged with vii for like one release"), then went standalone again. ZEUSII and Enzo joined post-Avenge dissolution to fill the roster. The August 1999 timing matters: Spirit of Rage entered the Swedish army for ten months of service, with computer access uncertain. The "we do NOT accept new members so dont apply!" policy was an invite-only response to the late-decade noise of every newbie wanting in. A small, consistent Swedish outfit. The Brotherhood-Vii merger episode is the kind of one-pack-fling that defined the late '90s scene's loose alliances.
