Twilightning was a Finnish power metal band that carved out a unique niche in the metal scene before their disbandment. Emerging from the city of Imatra in Finland, the group formed in 1998, embracing the melodic and fast-paced elements typical of their genre but infusing them with a hard rock sensibility that gave their sound a distinctive edge. Over the course of their career, Twilightning developed a reputation for their skillful blend of guitar harmonies, keyboard flourishes, and memorable choruses, underpinned by lyrical themes ranging from fantasy to social commentary.

With a discography that includes the well-received albums "Delirium Veil" released in 2003 and "Plague-House Puppet Show" in 2004, Twilightning's work resonated with fans of the genre, earning them international recognition. The band's later works include "Bedlam" (EP, 2006) and their final studio album "Swinelords" (2007), which demonstrated a grittier, more aggressive style compared to their earlier releases. Despite an enthusiastic fan base and growing critical acclaim, the band announced their split in 2009, leaving behind a legacy of innovative power metal that continues to inspire a loyal following.
