Created in late 1997 by former CEREMONY OF ECLIPSE members vocalist Henri Villberg and guitarist Kimmo Tukainen. Original second guitarist Jukka GrÃ¥stén would decamp after recording of the 'Astro' demo necessitating bassist Erik Lundén covering the guitar role and the enrollment of Aleksi Ahokas on bass.

Ahokas has credits with RAPTURE, EXCELSIOR, PROPHET and SNOWGARDEN. Lundén has a side band entitled STILL LIFE. Villberg has sessioned as guest 'growling' vocalist for PROPHET and also joined RAPTURE as co-lead vocalist.

Upfront of recording a sophomore album in the summer of 2002 Henri Villberg made his exit from the band. News also emerged that Alessi Ahokas, as 'Mr. A', had founded a fresh venture billed oddly as RAIN PAINT in union with FRAGILE HOLLOW's 'Mr. K' and DENIGRATE's 'Mr. T.' This new unit signed to My Kingdom Music and set to work on an album announced with a working title of 'Nihil Nisi Mors'. Viillberg also featured with RAIN PAINT and subsequently joined AGON ORIGIN and IKUINEN KAAMOS.

Eric Lundén joined MIND OF DOLL and, as bassist, FULL DIESEL.
