History

Entwine were founded in 1995 by Aki Hanttu, Teppo Taipale and Tom Mikkola. Initially the band played more Death Metal. Two years later the band decided to change the style and henceforth continue as a gothic metal band. With Panu Willman, a second guitarist was committed. In December 1997 the band recorded their demo Divine Infinity. Two months later, the keyboardist Riitta Heikkonen joined the band.

In September 1999, the debut album The Treasures Within Hearts appeared. In April 2000, left Panu Willman (later of Before the Dawn ) and Teppo Taipale the band. New bass player was Joni Miettinen. A month later teamed up with Mika Tauriainen to a new singer of the band. In April 2001, the second album Gone, which was named by the German Metal Hammer magazine's " Album of the Month " was released. The single New Dawn became the first top 10 hit of the band. At the end of Jaani Kähkönen became the new guitarist. Shortly thereafter, he became an integral member of the band.

Already in 2002 the third album Time of Despair was released. Along with Theatre of Tragedy and Ram - Zet Entwine toured through Europe. With the fourth album Dieversity, published in 2004, the band changed their sound a bit. Some Gothic Roots were dropped and the music falls a total of harder. This line of approach was also on the fifth album Fatal Design, published in 2006, maintained. In December 2006, keyboardist Riitta Heikkonen left the band to have more time for your personal life to have. The band decided not reappointed Riitta and makes as a quintet on.
