Biography

Hailing from eastern Ohio, the band was conceptualized by vocalist/guitarist/songwriter Corey Roth in 2011. Corey recruited John Williams (vocals), Andrew D'Cagna (bass) and Justin Wood (drums) to complete the lineup. A five song EP was self-released in 2012, followed by a full length in 2013. 2014 saw the band signing a two abum deal with veteran underground label Metal Blade Records. The first two recordings were repackaged and released under Metal Blade as one album, followed by the album "Black Magic" in early 2016. 2017 proved to be a transitional year for the unit. The band parted ways with Metal Blade, as well as original vocalist John and drummer Justin. Dave Trik joined soon after to take over drumming duties and the band collectively decided to forge on as a trio. New songs were penned and the album "What Was and What Shall Be" was released independently in 2018. Fans responded very positively to the lineup change and new material. Three successful US tours to promote the album soon followed. 2020 saw the band in the studio, as well as inking a new record deal with the highly respected label Ripple Music. The latest album, entitled The Woes of a Mortal Earth was released August 21st 2020. Received with critical acclaim by both the press and fans alike, The Woes of a Mortal Earth is a noticeably darker, more chilling direction for the band and has been touted as the eerily appropriate soundtrack for the year in which it was released.
