History

The band formed in 2004, with their members being lead vocalist, Jacob Mathes, lead guitarist and background vocalist, Kevin Tubby, rhythm guitarist Dakota Whiteside, bassist and background vocalist, Joshua Mathes, and drummer, Brandon Lopez.
Their first studio album, Forever in Flames, was released in 2009, by Sullen Records. The extended play, Stripped, Stabbed, and Crucified, was independently released in 2012. Their subsequent studio album, Warbound, was released in 2013, from Luxor Records. They released, Broken Flesh, on September 4, 2015, with Luxor Records. On March 30, 2016, Vocalist Jacob Mathes announced his leaving of the band.
Both Mathes and his brother Josh, played their last show at Serpent Stomp Festival with bands such as Living Sacrifice, Death Therapy, Every Knee Shall Bow, Grave Robber, Becoming Saints and White Collar Sideshow on April 23, 2016.
After the departure of the Mathes brothers, the band began searching for a replacement bassist. They found Kyle Fitzgerald and he became an official member on May 18, 2016. Fitzgerald would depart on February 25, 2017, and be replaced by Bryan Nikkel, formerly of Obliteration and Death List, on April 6, 2017. The band released a single off of their upcoming album, titled "Bloodlust" on June 23, 2017. A week later, June 30, they released "Wretched", the second single.
In mid-2019, it was announced that the band would join the second Hasten Revelation tour lineup, alongside Cardiac Rupture, Taking the Head of Goliath, Abated Mass of Flesh, and a reunited Crimson Thorn for dates set for March 7–14, 2020. The band had previously performed on the tour as a special guest, with the original lineup of Abated Mass of Flesh, Taking the Head of Goliath, Death Requisite, and A Hill to Die Upon. However, due to health problems that Tubby contracted, the band were forced to drop off of the tour. My Place Was Taken took the place of Broken Flesh on the tour.
