This is only a Fan profile, I apologize for any confusions.
The band was formed in November 1996 by Glenn Morten Nordbø, Arild
Christensen and Stig Johansen. The band was initially called "Purgatory" but
they soon decided to change their name to something less common. Anita
Auglend and Ola Aarrestad quickly joined the band, and they recorded their
first demo All Alone in January-February 1997. Anders Thue and Ingfrid
Stensland then joined before they recorded their second demo Silent Pain in
January 1998. Pete Johansen played the violin on that demo though he did
not officially joined the band until the recording of their first full-length album
Lake of Sorrow later in 1998. They toured across Europe, before recording
their second full-length album Perpetual Desolation in 2000. During the
following tour, Anita Auglend, Anders Thue and Ingfrid Stensland grew weary
of traveling and left the band in 2001. A live performance was released on
CD and VHS in 2001, though it was not distributed worldwide and is thus very
hard to come by. The band has been dormant since the departure of its three
members. Pete Johansen has since left to play the violin on several Tristania
albums.
