In 1998 the band Recorded a demo that is unreleased (and should stay that way haha) poor recording. in 1999 we released "no choice" L.P. on independent label. Toured some east coast cities. in 2000 we played beer olympics in Atlanta and was working with GMM records for a bit. In 2001 - Played the Beer olympics and other shows with bands like Oxymoron, Patriot, UK Subs, Templars in Pittsburgh. At this point Donovan left the band and Rob Faulkner came on as lead singer.
