Formados en el año 1995 bajo el nombre de Apocalypse, el grupo se dedicó en sus comienzos a tocar versiones de canciones clásicas de Iron Maiden, Queen y The Cult. El nombre del grupo cambio a After Forever cuando empezaron a componer sus propias canciones, grabando su primer demo en 1999, el cual atrajo el interés de la discográfica Transmission Records, con la cual firmaron inmediatamente. El estilo de su música es una base de gothic metal con incorporaciones de tipo clásico o incluso de música alternativa.
