The band began when two long-time friends, Dean Andrews and Kenny Harrelson met with Jason "Gong" Jones, former front man of Drowning Pool. Jones wanted to create his own music, rather than following the lead of others like in his previous role, so when Andrews and Harrelson met him, it was clear that they had the same vision. With the addition of Drew Burke and the rejoining of Rob DeHaven, the band finally had the right minds and skills in place to create music.
