The band's members met at school in Dumbarton. In 2002 they self-released their first EP Killing Something Beautiful. In 2003 the band released their second EP As We Rise.
In December 2003 Mendeed signed a recording contract with UK Label Rising Records. The band's first release on that label was an EP From Shadows Came Darkness in September 2004. It was produced by Mark Daghorn. Mendeed's music was played on rock radio stations. The band toured, supporting DragonForce twice.
In December 2004 the video Ignite the Flames was added to the playlists of MTV2 shows Headbangers Ball and 120 Minutes, and the catalogue of Scuzz TV.

From Shadows Came Darkness
by: MendeedIn dark eyes lacking feeling or expression
Blood laced tears suggest life within this creature
A life so full of pain - devoid of spirit
Chastised, despised - so forced to fight
Against the peril of humanity.
In lucid dreams a precious life unfolds
Enchanting
The spell is broken by screams
Evil is calling
Put a bullet through its head if it can't win
To hell with that if the fuckers get away with it
Where's the justice in the world if you can't destroy the
one who ripped your life apart
Through its eyes we are feeling the pain of surviving
Its soul is living inside us all
We must rise - fuelling the spirit redemption
The cross will shine
He died for the sake of the of the good inside us
We must carry on his legacy
Rise and believe
