Essence of Sorrow is a melodic power metal band from Finland/Sweden formed by Jani Stefanovic. Their sound can be compared to Evergrey and Kamelot with robust guitars and emphatic keyboards.

Essence of Sorrow, initially a solo project, began to take shape during the spring of 2005 in Gothenburg, Sweden. Founded by Jani Stefanovic (Divinefire, Miseration, The Weakening, ex- Renascent etc.) he began to compose intricate music that expressed various feelings through strong melancholic melodies. As time passed by, Jani began to expand his vision by transforming his solo project into a full piece band. After inviting well known musicians such as Mats Leven (ex- Yngwie Malmsteen), and Mikko HΓ€rkin (Mehida, ex- Sonata Arctica), he was able to invite more talented artists. Proceeding their recording sessions a permanent line up was assembled to reveal the art of Essence of Sorrow.

Rivel Records released their debut album, entitled: "Reflections of the Obscure", December 21st 2006 in Japan and January 10th 2007 across Europe & United States.
