This Empty Flow

This Empty Flow was founded in 1994 by Jori Sjöroos and Niko Sirkiä in Finland. Previously they had played together in a band called Thergothon.
Their debut, called "Magenta Skycode", was released in 1996. Niko left the band at the end of the year. The band continued with a new line-up until disbanding in 1997.
Since the split-up there have been a few other releases. In 1999, "Three Empty Boys" was released and it included 4 songs of the unreleased follow-up to the debut album and 7 studio rehearsals/demos recorded in 1995-1997. A mini album called "Useless And Empty Songs" came out in 2000; in 2001 "Nowafter", a compilation album with rare and unreleased songs, was released. Their releases are hard to find and remain cult items sought after by dark music lovers around the world.
In March 2006, Eibon Records re-released Magenta Skycode along with a bonus CD of extra tracks from around the album's time period as a 2xCD titled simply "The Album".
