History
The band started in 1991, with members Myk Porter, Tom Wohlfield, Matt Simmons, and Mike Shaffer. They recorded their first demo, which was titled Self EP and Struggle with this line-up. Johnny Amanse joined the band for a brief time and decided to leave to spend more time with his family.
Shaffer and Simmons left the band and were replaced by Bryan Gray and Matt Traxler, who recorded on The Road Less Traveled. The band disbanded due to Porter wanting to change the band's musical style.
