Tomb of... begun in late 2004 by sole musician W.S. of Frozen Glare. March 2005 saw them release their first demo, "...The Rotting Break"., which brought the band to the interest of O.T. from Akitsa, who went on to release their work in his label Tour de Garde.

According to an interview with WS, Tomb Of... have a history that take them back to 2002, when they begun as a Burzum inspired black metal project called "Nebel". The project then changed name to "Totenmaske" before finally settling for Tomb Of..., in early 2004. Though there is no recorded material from the Nebel and Totenmaske era, the new work "...The Death Visor", which is a rough translation of the project title "Totenmaske" will allegedly include material from this early period.

Ever since, Tomb Of... went on to progressively change their sound to Doom / Drone / Dark Ambient first and later on into purely Minimalist Dark Ambient / Noise inspired by such acts as Northaunt.

Tomb Of... signed to tUMULt in 2008 and it has been revealed that the label will re-release the first two demos as a Full Length with new bonus material included. There are also plans to release "...A Pessimist Bizarre" through tUMULt, but this has not been finalized.

After some releases that were completely unrelated to metal, the project announced that for the last two remaining planned releases, "...The Death Visor" and "...A Pessimist Bizarre", the project will go back to its roots and implement a funeral doom / black metal sound. It has been confirmed that the project will be completed and thus disband after these two EPs are released.

On January 2009, WS changed his stage name to Claustrophobist.
