Shortly before releasing The Gates of Oblivion, the band announced their split.

Due to musical differences, Elisa C. Martín, Albert Maroto and Jorge Saez left the band, and formed Dreamaker.

Enrik García and Anan Kaddouri remained with Dark Moor.

José Garrido (guitars) joined shortly after, followed by Andy C. on the drums.

The band traveled to Italy to record their self-titled album at the New Sin Studio.
