Black Swan, a Melodic Black Metal band from Finland, started in 1995 as a two-man project of T. Palokangas and J. Tuomivaara. The band released "Demo '96" with T. Palokangas handling guitars and vocals and J. Tuomivaara handling keyboards and programming. After the demo they decided to expand to a five-man set, mainly because of the impossibilities of playing a real live set with just two men. A bit later Palokangas decided to concentrate mainly to the guitarwork and Antti Haapapuro joined the band as a vocalist. In the summer of 1997 Black Swan started gigging steadily and recorded their second demo "Autumn in Eden". In the fall they signed a record deal with Mastervox. 3).
