Artist History The band was formed in 1994. The two original members Kirk Lukas(vocals,guitar) and Mike Benninger (guitar) came from upstate NY. They released a demo in June of 99 (entitled- Rise of the Fallen), which recieved a tremendous response locally. They performed many shows in NY/NJ/CT (including opening for such acts as Mudvayne, Hatebreed and Candiria) and they built a large fan base of some of the sickest most dedicated people possible. Their live shows have been characterized as "Upstate NY hardcore gods with unique heavy sounds that must be experienced. These guys are perfect everytime they hit the stage". In August of 99 they added John Lukas (bass) and Billy Wilson (drums) to the band. This completed the rythymn lineup that they needed. Presently they just released a four song disc and are performing across the NY/NJ/CT tri-state area in support of it.
