In 2005, the band started in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania with core members: vocalist John Healy and their two lead guitarists, Luke Healy and Trevor Kope. However, the group have gone through many membership changes.[citation needed] At first, the outfit included bassist Scott Buechner, who left the group after the Legacy extended play was released.[citation needed] Two new members were added: drummer Josh Miller and the bassist replacement Josh Ziegler.[1] Nevertheless, the outfit went through a change again prior to Death Sentence being released with Jacob Wilder replacing the departed Josh Miller on drums. Also, bassist Josh Ziegler left the band, then returned later that year.[2][better source needed] The band released their third album, State of Mind on December 9, 2016.[3] The band performed their final show at Facedown Fest 2017.[4][5]
The outfit released a demo project in 2009 with S.O.T.S and it eventually lead to their independently released extended play called Legacy.[6][7] This got the attention of Facedown Records, who signed the band before the release of Unholy Anger in 2013 making it their first studio album.[8] Just a little over a year later, the band released the second studio album titled Death Sentence.[9] The album had some prowess on a few Billboard charts and those were the Christian Albums and Heatseekers Albums.[10]
Sources have put their music into various genres, everything from deathcore and metalcore to nu metal and hardcore punk.[11][12][13][14] At its core, the music is Christian metal for its sacred elements and heavy metal in its overall sound.
