Parhelion (LIB005CD) was the final Libitina album, released in 2006. Like the band's previous studio album, Parhelion was recorded at Cryonica Studios in East London between November 2005 and February 2006.

After a short tour to publicise the release, the band announced its split onstage at Madame JoJo's in Soho, London, in September 2006. After 100 live shows, four albums, three lead singers, and a lot of adventures, it was time to call an end to the band.
