Formed in 1992, Aeba is a so-called black metal band from Germany with keyboards. The name change occurred in 1994. Aeba is an acronym for the four demons of hell: Astaroth, Eurynome, Bael and Amducias. The band's first album is actually its second demo. In mid-2001 the band finds itself in conflict with its label claiming the label is not paying for the costs of a recorded album (Rebellion), that the album is kept hostage in the studio and begins an email campaign against Last Episode. The band's drummer has already left the fold and the gang revert to the old stand by: the drum machine. Infernal Disaster joins the band as drummer late in 2001 and Stephanie leaves the fold in the spring of 2002.
