Triosphere formed in 2004, and released their first EP, Deadly Decadence, in 2005. 2006 saw the Norwegian release of their debut album Onwards, which was subsequently released in Asia, the United States and the rest of Europe.[1] Created as a trio, the band's line-up expanded in 2006 to incorporate second guitarist Byberg, only recognized as a live member before.[2]
In 2006 and 2007, Triosphere hade done two norwegian tours with W.A.S.P., but also three european tours from 2007 to 2009 along many famous artists or bands: W.A.S.P. once again, but also Kotipelto, Chris Caffery, Kamelot, Jorn, Arch Enemy and Destruction. In august 2009, the band receives the award for Metal album of the Year from "Just Plain Folks Music Organization", the worlds largest independent music organization, in competition with more than 40.000 artists in all genres around the world.[2]
Their second album, The Road Less Travelled was picked up by AFM Records and released on May 28, 2010.[3] The album is for the first time producted by Bergensen (also co-productor of the previous album) but also by Haukland.
They later go on tour with Sonata Arctica on their Days of Grays tour. During the tour Bygerg must stop concerts because of a "small back prolapse". Triosphere is joigned by a substitute drummer, Anders Vinje from the band Divided Multitude.
