Members included singer Scott Ruth, guitarist Shaune Kelley, bassist David Bizzigotti, drummer Brandon Thomas. They later added future Morbid Angel guitarist Erik Rutan, who went on to form Hate Eternal. Thomas, Ruth, and Kelley went on to form Dim Mak. The band's lyrics typically were horror-themed.
