This band traces its roots back to Australia and the cult black metal band Destroyer 666, as the two guitarists here were one-time members of that band, and in fact are still active in that band. After a demo (Diabologue) and an MLP (Pillars Of Creation, released in 2003), the band signed to Metal Blade and eventually released their debut full-length album, Homage To Martyrs, by which time they had relocated to England. Homage is essentially a non-stop barrage of prime blackened thrash, short on variety (really, pretty much every song is the same speed and style) but long on intensity and ferocity.
