INTO DARKNESS were formed in summer 1995 by guitarists Sebastian Laengerer and Christian Popp. Their intention was to form a death metal band with a maximum of influences such as (mainly) death-, black-, thrash-, heavy metal and grindcore beyond any trends, just doing their own thing. After more than one year the Band gave up the search for musicians to complete the line up. There were neither motivated nor skillful musicians who could fit in the Band. This problem was solved by doing vocals and bass by themselves and by programming the drums (and even some of the bass lines).
In march 1997, their self-produced and self-mixed debut album born out of this situation, “Misfortunal Odes In D-Minor”, was released on tape, only in small numbers (600p.) and got excellent feedback and sold out only in 2 months. Finally, in early autumn 1997, a bassist was found: Florian “Floh” Kos joined the band. Session singer J.J. Schork from Heidelbergs black metal fourpiece GEWEIH (Now IRRLYCHT) completed the recording line-up for the 7 inch EP “Reanimation” that was released exclusively on blue vinyl in January 1998. It was also sold our very quickly and is now highly sought after.
In November 1998, INTO DARKNESS re-recorded two songs for different compilations. One song, “Facetious Torture”, was featured on the German underground compilation “DEATHOPHOBIA VI”(10.000 p.), while the second song “Change Of Course” was released on french Compilation “Propulsive Symphonies I” (2000p.). These new versions could be seen as a preview of how the new material would sound like: more brutal and extreme and also more technical and complex, still with a sense for melody.
Since December 1998 the line up of INTO DARKNESS was completed by american drummer “Tik” who made the first Gigs ever possible. From March 1999 on, the Band played several gigs in germany, and supported CENTINEX (Now DEMONICAL) and NUNSLAUGHTER on their European "Repulsive Revenge Tour" in September 2000 (for 13 eerie dates). This was a major step ahead for the band's success in Europe.
Due to lack of time, second Guitarist Chris left the band permanently - from there on, the Band mutated to a powerful Trio.
In March/April 2001, the band was devastating Europe again, on the self-organized "Blasphemous Enslavement of Darkness" Tour with slovak deathers DEMENTOR. Sadly after this Tour drummer Tik left the band due to personal reasons.
The band immediately started working on a demo version of their full length Album "Dysphoria", to attract the interest of new musicians and Labels. Bassplayer Floh left the band in June 2002 which led to a total stop until November 2002, when he was replaced by new bassist, Bjoern Daigger (ex-IRONY, ANGUISH, now MAJESTY, R:I:P, CIVILISATION ONE). Herb Grimm from pals ANASARCA/EYE SEA did the drums sessionwise, until Chris Merzinsky (ex-PENETRALIA, MIDNATT SOL, R:I:P:) joined in permanently, in January 2003.
April 2003 saw the long awaited recording of the first Album CD “Dysphoria”, wich still hasn..t been released so far. At this point Bjoern left the Band to join ANGUISH and was replaced by new Bassman Alex Siedler. After two successfull tours with DISILLUSION and COMMANDER and DEW SCENTED and COMMANDER, in Spring and Autumn 2004, drummer Chris left the Band leading to another critical Gigstop.
By january 2005 Sebastard had again joined forces with first and premier "old time buddy" drummer Tik, to accomplish a new/the old lineup. To completely join back to the old powerful Lineup, Florian "Floh" Kos joined back on Bassguitar, a couple of months later. This was the INTO DARKNESS Lineup for almost 3 Years, stronger than ever!
The Summer of 2008 saw the Band growing back to a four Piece! The new Guitarist "Bahni" (Ex-Amorph Pneuma, Ex Dawn, Ex Pto-Maine) joined the Band for the only reason, to make the Band even more powerful!
Sadly Tik had to leave the Band again in April 2009, so Ba:ni switched from 2nd Guitar to the new Into Darkness drummer. From now on the Band is a Threepiece again and already gigged this way with great Fanresults!
