History
The band was formed in summer 1993, and their first album was released in 1996. Afterwards, they toured in the US, Canada, Europe and Australia.
In 2001, following their last album, the band unofficially split up, because "things just got wound down".[3] Their last concert was played in 2002.
In 2006, the band suddenly created a MySpace page, and later in 2009 a Facebook page. In October 2010, the band reunited. On July 18, 2011, it was officially announced that the band will write a new album.[4]
