''Planetes'' was released in January 1999 on Ordo Equitum Solis' own label Sinope, through the UK-based [[World Serpent Distribution]]. In addition to ''Planetes'', the band's revival resulted in the release of the mini-album ''Signs'', the double CD compilation ''Octo'', the album ''Metamorphosis - Personam Impono'' and the 7 inch vinyl picture-disc ''A Divine Image''. During this period the artistic experimentations of the band kept evolving, with a more refined style detached from clichés. A review of ''Planetes'' stated: "Planetes, with its delicate electro-acoustic ballads and its subtle 'esoteric' keyboard layers, places itself more than worthily in a creative path still in solitary and noteworthy ascent" (Vittore Baroni, Rumore magazine n° 85 – 1999). ''Planetes'' and the other CD's of this year were reviewed in various international magazines. | ''Planetes'' was released in January 1999 on Ordo Equitum Solis' own label Sinope, through the UK-based [[World Serpent Distribution]].

Nevertheless, the non-efficient distribution of World Serpent disappointed the band. The general drop in sales faced the band with excessive difficulties. Also, Ordo Equitum Solis found that live-concerts were harder to get or unsatisfying, and the band finally decided to break up, immediately after their concert at the [[Wave-Gotik-Treffen]] in Leipzig on 3 June 2001. | Nevertheless, the non-efficient distribution of World Serpent disappointed the band.
