Vanity Beach was formed in 2002 after the demise of Joakim Nyberg's and Jonas Karsten's former band cUM. The band entered the studio back in 2001 to start recording what would eventually end up being released as Nights Of The New. The album is basically a collection of demos recorded between the years 2001 and 2003. The album notably featured a guest appearance by Chibi from The Birthday Massacre on the song The Knight Murders. An extended version of the album was released in Australia on October 17, 2005 through Electricult Records/MGM.
One-off shows were played in Finland, Sweden, Estonia and the Russian Federation including warm-up shows for bands such as Swedish pop sensations Shout Out Louds and Estonian heavyweights Pedigree. In the summer of 2004 the band played at the Tuska Open Air Metal Festival in Helsinki. The infamous show, notoriously ending with the band destroying their gear sealed the band's reputation as a truly dangerous live act.
Vengeance was originally slated to be released in May 2005 but was pushed back for a later release due to the inner turbulence within the band's ranks, resulting in delays in the recording process. Titus Simberg left the band a few months later. Take Me To Tokyo, the first single off the band's second album Vengeance was released in August 2005. The single, paving the way for the new album received rave reviews and earned the band features in such high-profile magazines as Metal Hammer and Kerrang!. A video for the song was shot at Europa Studios in Stockholm, Sweden. Vengeance was released as an EP on October 31 2006.
The band filmed a video to BATCAVE, their first actual single song off the new EP. The video featured a cameo from M.A. Numminen and was directed by Jaakko Itäaho (of Picture This - Mack Dawg Productions fame).
Vanity Beach's second full length album came to be "A Life Of Vice" with Johnny Lee Michaels (of The 69 Eyes fame) handling the production duties. Recording started in 2008 in Michaels' then famous Helsinki Underground Studios. The song "Garden Of Cruelty" was featured in the snowboard movie Storbis (2009) and the first single "Batcave" premiered on Finnish radio on March 5, 2010.
In October 2009 the band played their first arena show opening up for Marilyn Manson at Hartwall Areena in Helsinki. Later that year they opened up for HIM at their annual hometown New Years festival Helldone held at Helsinki's famed Tavastia Club.
