The band's first demo releases are Death Metal, but everything since Leppäluoto joined has been Gothic Metal. Leppäluoto also sings in Northern Kings, an 80's pop cover project also featuring: - Marco Hietala (Tarot (Fin)) - Jarkko Ahola (Teräsbetoni) - Tony Kakko (Sonata Arctica) The band made an official announcement on the 3rd of June, 2011, that they would disband at the end of the Summer as they have no longer anything new to give to the genre in which they have operated. They played their last two gigs on consecutive days (29th and 30th of July, 2011) at Nuclear Nightclub in Oulu.
