Founding
members Stefan Lagergren, Jörgen Thullberg and Anders Holmberg reunited for a
one-off gig for the release party of the Swedish Death Metal book on January
26, 2008. The last founding member, Johan Edlund, did not participate, stating
in some interviews that he doesn't want to have anything to do with Treblinka
anymore; moreover, as he said in 2008, Treblinka "was an extremely bad
name". The brothers Erik "Tyrant" Gustavsson and Per
"Hellbutcher" Gustavsson of Nifelheim replaced him for this show.
There is
also a two CD bootleg compilation called Treblinka. The first disc features the
single and both demos (in reverse chronological order). The second disc has a
live concert captured in Stockholm on April 7, 1989, and a rehearsal recorded
on January 3, 1989.

Runhild Gammelsæter is a musician notable for being the vocalist for the American bands Thorr's Hammer and Khlyst. She works as a professional biologist and holds a Ph.D. in cell physiology.
Runhild Gammelsæter was a 17-year-old foreign exchange student from Norway when she joined Thorr's Hammer along with Stephen O'Malley and Greg Anderson. After 6 weeks, which was the time it took to release Sannhet i Blodet and record Dommedagsnatt, the band split up due to Runhild returning to Oslo, Norway. Dommedagsnatt was released soon afterwards in 1996 via Southern Lord Records. The four other members of Thorr's Hammer went on to form the band Burning Witch.
In 2006, she helped form the band Khlyst along with James Plotkin and Tim Wyskida. The album Chaos is My Name was released the same year, which also featured two painted portraits by Runhild herself.
On June 28, 2008, her debut solo album, Amplicon, was released through Utech Records.
Runhild Gammelsæter has a PhD in cell physiology from the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Oslo. She is also a Fulbright Scholar, and is currently serving on the Board of Directors of Norwegian biotechnology company Regenics A.S.
