We play Euro influenced metal, and have been playing live since early 2008 in Adelaide. Refusing to be constricted to the City of Churches, 2009 has seen multiple trips interstate including Melbourne and Sydney with more dates in these cities throughout 2010.
We have had tracks featured in renowned UK magazines Terrorizer and Metal Hammer, while also receiving consistent airplay on triple J's Full Metal Racket. This coverage has lead to support slots with Haste The Day (USA) The Acacia Strain (USA) The Red Shore and Between The Buried And Me (USA).
We have recently released a high quality, two track release to provide a means of exhibiting the direction our music is heading. The new songs are "insert adjective here" in regards to the guitars, vocals and drums.
