The band originally began as a solo project by Yoo Soo Kim in the fall of 2009. Yoo Soo performed, recorded, produced, mixed, and self-released Death Wave with the aid of Zach Benkowski on drums. Since then, the band has expanded its lineup to include Tim Cap, Matt McGuire, and Joe Capacete to create the powerful 5-piece band it currently presents itself to be.
