Into Eternity is a Canadian progressive metal band from Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada.
Into Eternity was formed in 1997 by founding members Tim Roth, Scott Krall and Jim Austin and later released an eponymous, independent album in 1999, with the addition of Chris Eisler and Chris McDougall. The band signed to Century Media Records a year later and then re-released their debut album.
In 2001, the band returned with their second album Dead or Dreaming, an album which saw a more pronounced integration of progressive and death metal. The trend continued on 2004's Buried in Oblivion and even further on 2006's The Scattering of Ashes.
Into Eternity performed on Gigantour 2006, which kicked off in Boise, Idaho on September 6, 2006. According to Soundscan, The Scattering of Ashes sold a little over 2,000 copies in the US during its first week of release. During the summer of 2007, Into Eternity (along with progressive metal band Redemption) toured in support of Dream Theater during their North American leg of the Chaos in Motion tour. Their new album entitled, The Incurable Tragedy, which is a concept album, was released on August 25, 2008 in Europe and on September 2, 2008 in North America.
On March 9, 2011, Into Eternity announced the addition of drummer Bryan Newbury. Also in 2011, Stu Block joined the band Iced Earth.
