The band first formed in 2011 and began working on their first EP Waves. The six track EP was recorded at 456 Recordings with producer Brian Hood, former drummer of Mychildren Mybride. The EP was heavily featured on many online blogs such as ItDjents, Chugcore, got-djent, The Daily Mosh, The Djentlemen's Club and more. The track "Captive" featured Brendon McMaster of now defunct Christian Deathcore band The Crimson Armada. Following the release of their EP the band was able to play a number of shows supporting bands such as Capsize, Elitist, Close to Home, and future label mates ERRA. They released a couple of singles in 2013 including the single "Half-Life" which would eventually make its way onto the new album.

    • Style

    The band focuses on delivering melodic passages blended with heavy hitting moments that creates a vivid atmosphere and unique blend of metalcore. The guitar work features a lot of slide tapping, dissonance, and technical riffs while the drumming is thunderous yet calm and relaxing at the same time. The vocals have a wide range of mid screams, brutal lows and somber clean singing that provides an aura of feelings. The band has been said to be similar-sounding of bands such as Northlane, Architects, Misery Signals, and Veil of Maya
