To/Die/For begun in early 1999, when the musicians from the hard rock band Mary-Ann (which had existed since 1993) decided to change their musical style to gothic metal, modifying the band's name as well. In July of that year, after recording a self-financed EP entitled Deeper Sin, they signed a record deal with Spinefarm Records. Their debut album - All Eternity - was released in Finland by the end of that year, and the band then signed contracts with Nuclear Blast (for Europe) and Pony Canyon (for Japan). Music Video's for songs "In The Heat Of The Night" And "Farewell" was recorded and obtained a fair amount of exposure. In 2000, the band toured Europe together with Dark Tranquillity, Sentenced and In Flames. Bassist Miikka Kuisma quit the band and was replaced by Marko Kangaskolkka, who had played with the band in its early years. Epilogue was released in 2001, and was followed by a tour with Lacrimosa. The album Jaded was released in 2003, and in August of that year, vocalist Jarno Perätalo left the band. He assembled a new band named Tiaga, integrated by former members of To/Die/For. Juha Kylmanen (from For My Pain) then assumed the vocals of To/Die/For. However, in 2004, Jarno Perätalo and the band Tiaga took the name To/Die/For for themselves, releasing the album IV in 2005.
