Erasmus was a metal band formed in 1995 by Chris Lundon and Todd Bridgeman. Their first demo CD, “Forged For Proof Eterne” was released for free distribution at Metalfest in Milwaukee, WI. A follow up was recorded in 2002. Containing only drums and guitars, those recordings remained untouched until the winter of 2008, when they were completed and released as “Nth Fen.” In 2017, the original demo CD was remastered and re-released under the name "Forged for Proof Eterne (Mumpsimus Edition)". This version also contained a previously unreleased demo from 1997.
