Callenish Circle was a Dutch melodic death metal band formed in 1992. They recorded three of their albums for Metal Blade Records and broke up in February 2007. In the early 2000s, things were going well for the band. In 2002, they toured with God Dethroned, played at the Dutch version of Ozzfest and the German Party San Open Air and opened for Dimmu Borgir. Their fourth album was released by Metal Blade in 2003; to support it they played that year's Wacken Open Air and Summer Breeze festivals in Germany,<ref>Metalfan.nl Interview: Callenish Circle</ref> and in October they were part of the Bonded by Metal Over Europe tour, headlined by Exodus, Nuclear Assault, and Agent Steel. In 2006, they toured Mexico (cited by the band as the high point of their career), before they decided to break up in 2007.<ref>Callenish Circle (1992–2007) on Muziekcentrum Nederland Template:Webarchive</ref> A part of their song "Suffer My Disbelief" is used as an outro in the online review show Angry Joe Show.
