In 2003–2004 Tristania took a break from performing live to focus solely on songwriting. More touring of Europe and Latin America followed in 2002. On that tour Tristania was supported by Rotting Christ, Vintersorg, and Madder Mortem. Kjetil Ingebrethsen joined the band prior to the World of Glass tour on extreme vocals. Bergøy, now a permanent member of the band, also began to write lyrics on this album and became the band's main lyricist. The album added classical and industrial elements to Tristania's sound, and included the band's only cover version: "The Modern End," originally by Seigmen. In December 2000 Veland and the rest of the band agreed on going separate ways, due to musical and personal differences.World of Glass was released in September 2001, with guest contributions from Ronny Thorsen, Johansen, and Barkved. The band continued touring extensively in 2000. The band also toured with Tiamat and Anathema in 1999. Tristania followed up the release with their first headlining tour with The Sins of Thy Beloved, Trail of Tears and Antichrisis as support acts. Jan Kenneth Barkved appeared as an additional singer. As on the debut album, Moen and Veland wrote the majority of the music, but Moen and Hidle emerged as a songwriting team.
