In 2004 the band released their debut demo limited to 100 copies consisting of 4 original tracks and one cover. “This infamous release had a sound that no wannabe fake metalhead would ever embrace and was officially sold out after 6 months.”
The band can’t reiterate enough how much beer plays a massive part in their existence. After the release of their demo, they began working on their EP. “It featured all the songs off the demo but done in a more killer human-sounding way! No fucking overproduction and absolutely zero trends!”
