Friends Adam von Buhler and Keith Smith formed the band in the winter of 2004.
Their debut album, The Way and Its Power, was released in 2005.
The album contained the song "Behind the Mask," which appeared in the PlayStation 2 game Guitar Hero as a bonus track. Smith was an employee of Harmonix Music Systems until 2010, and von Buhler's former bandmate, Kasson Crooker, is its audio director.
"Collide" (from their 2007 release, A Single Drop of Red) is a bonus track for Guitar Hero II. Of the 24 bonus tracks in the game, GameSpy named "Collide" as one of the five best.
