Bastian Emig stated that he had already been composing material for what would later become In Legend before joining Van Canto—more exactly during his studies and in the course of a year-long stay in China.

The Pandemonium EP (limited to 500 copies)[4] was the band's first release and was available for purchase on their very first tour in support of Van Canto in the spring 2010.
