Callenish Circle was formed in 1992 in Holland by Patrick Savelkoul (vocals) and Jos Evers (guitar). In 1994 Ronny Tijssen (guitar) and Gavin Harte (drums) joined the band and in 1995 they entered a studio and recorded their one and only demo, Lovelorn. In 1996 they were signed to Hammerheart Records where they released their debut album, Drift of Empathy, same year. The band didn't get the breakthrough they all had hoped for so.

They then parted ways with Hammerheart Records and in 1998 they released the MCD, Escape, through Polar Bear Records. They left the label and were then signed to DSFA Records where they released Graceful..Yet Forbidding. But the label encountered serious financial problems and the band switched to Metal Blade Records.

In 2002 they then released Flesh Power Dominion, then a wealth of tours followed. My Passion // Your Pain was then released in 2003 and was followed by the Forbidden Empathy compilation in 2004 and [Pitch.Black.Effects] in November 2005. The band disbanded in February 2007, playing their final show on March 10, 2007.

The bands final line-up was: Patrik Savelkoul (vocals), Ronny Tijssen (guitar), Wim Vossen (bass), Gavin Harte (guitar) and Remy Dieteren (drums).
