The band was originally formed by Finn Zierler in 1992 under the name "Twilight".
Musically the style changed to dark progressive metal with symphonic elements and harmonic vocals.
Beyond Twilight have released three studio albums to date and one music video: The Devil's Hall of Fame on July 23, 2001, Section X[1] on March 29, 2005 and For the Love of Art and the Making on April 21, 2006 under German label, Massacre Records.
The line-up was announced to include former Beyond Twilight vocalist Kelly Sundown Carpenter (Firewind, Darkology, Outworld) and Truls Haugen (Circus Maximus, Insense) on shared vocal duties, Per Nilsson (Scar Symmetry, Kaipa) on guitars/bass, and Bobby Jarzombek (Fates Warning, Halford, Spastic Ink) on drums.
Although initially anticipated as a 2013 release,[2] the band's debut album ESC did not surface until the fall of 2015.
