Paatos records its first single, Perception, in spring 2001 which was the followed by the debut album Timeloss released early autumn 2002. At this point Paatos is playing more and more frequently. Guitarist Reine leaves the band and is replaced by Peter Nylander, Paatos' current guitarist.

While on a short tour in Germany and Belgium in summer 2003, Paatos had a meeting with Thomas Waber at Insideout Music. This meeting culminated in Paatos signing a deal with the label and to start working on the second album.

The second album, Kallocain, is recorded and subsequently mixed by Steven Wilson. This collaboration began with Paatos playing a few gigs with Porcupine Tree when they were on tour in Sweden. The prospect of Steven mixing Kallocain was fantastic as was Steven's magic to be heard in the final result.

After some touring around Europe, Paatos starts working on their third album, Silence of Another Kind, released spring 2006. From touring more and more, the music started to take on a slightly heavier tone, something which affected the music on this recording. The love for mesmerizing trans-like grooving landscapes was still there, but also the wish to create strong contrast.

Paatos writes collectively in their own studio, The Green Genie, in Stockholm. The fact that five different musical backgrounds and lives contribute ideas, makes for a sound that mixes and moves organically between worlds where boundaries and thresholds are blurred.
