The name Elfion was Forged in Fire in 1984. It was derived from a book we read, titled "The Tree of Swords and Jewels." As you can see the Tolkien books were a very huge influence. That was the image we strived to uphold back in the day. Bands like Iron Maiden, Rainbow, Armored Saint, Savage Grace, Jag Panzer, and Queensryche inspired us to follow this path. We have played a number of concerts with bands like Finntroll, Testament, Overkill, and Exodus.
