Formed in 2024 they have garnered a name for themselves in Brighton’s vibrant metal and punk scenes thanks to the quality of their chaotic and energetic live shows  lead to their first headliner at legendary Brighton venue The Green Door Store and supporting slots at hometown heavyweight venue The Prince Albert. 2026 has started even better with shows in Brighton and Reading supporting WREX and Lo Rays before the band head to Isle of Wight Fest in June.
