Formed in 1990 under the name Forlorn, the band released several demos before changing their name to Isole in 2003 in order to avoid confusion with other bands named Forlorn.[1] In 2005, Isole released their debut album, Forevermore through I Hate Records. In 2006, they also released The Beyond and 'Throne of Void through I Hate Records. In 2008, Isole's third full-length studio album, 'Bliss of Solitude, was released through a different label, Napalm Records. Their 2009 album Silent Ruins was also released through Napalm Records, which they are currently signed with.[1] Silent Ruins is a concept album about a man who wakes up without any memory of his life in a post-apocalyptic world; he slowly gains memories about himself but fears that this will lead to a devastating conclusion for him. Crister Olsson stated in an interview that the story of Silent Ruins will be continued on a future album, possibly two future albums, one of which might not be Isole's next studio album.[2]
