Historia: Varjoinen started out as a one man project in 1998 and turned into a band in 2015. The name Varjoinen has been an alter ego name for the founding member Aki since 1998 when the first lyrics and melodies were created. The first release was an industrial metal album called Shot By Impulse (2004), though it never got released to the public. At the beginning of 2014, Varjoinen started to remix and remaster older songs and released them on the Bitter Retrospect EP and Into The Eye Of The Storm compilation album. The album Shot By Impulse was supposed to be released to the public at the same time but since the material needed much updating, the release was cancelled and all the focus went towards new compositions. At the beginning of 2015, Varjoinen released synthwave-based minialbum Shadows Of The Future, that was closer to the material of the forthcoming full-length album. During summer 2015, Shadows Of The Future was re-released with bonus content and at the same time 2 new members joined to Varjoinen, thus making it into a real band instead of a solo project.
