During this time, the band started out with Shane Breyer and John Haughm. The two artists began producing songs and were soon joined by Don Anderson.

This demo tape was influenced heavily by black metal and its style would influence many albums to come. After its release, Jason William Walton joined the band as its bassist and it soon began working on more music.
 
By 1998, Agalloch had worked on a second demo tape, this time made specifically for record labels. It was then sent out and caught the attention of The End Records who offered the band a contract. Their first album, titled as Pale Folklore, was then released and it feature a lower black metal influence and a more folk and neoclassical music influence. It gained critical acclaim amongst fans of metal. In 2001, they released an EP titled as Of Stone, Wind and Pillor which contained a more experimental and neoclassical sound, including a cover of the song Kneel to the Cross by the famous neofolk group, Sol Invictus. This song was also released as part of a tribute to Sol Invictus by the record label Cynerfierrd with the album titled as Sol Lucet Omnibus.
 
In 2002, the album The Mantle was released and it contained a more post-rock sound. It was popular in mainstream circles and led to interviews by mainstream magazines as well, marking a new era of the band. In 2003, they performed their first ever live show in Portland and followed it up with several more shows and a tour of the west coast. The same year, the released the album Tommorow Will Never Come and in 2004, came out with The Grey. These two EPs were even more experimental and marked another turn in the band’s music. Alongwith Nest, a Finnish band, a split album was released in 2004 with members of the band also contributing to Nest’s album.
 
In 2006, Agalloch released the album Ashes Against the Grain followed by The White in 2008.
