[edit] History
The group formed after the breakup of post-punk hardcore band The Murder in May of 2005. Prior to this, the band operated as zer0cold throughout 2004 and released an 8-track self-titled EP. zer0cold disbanded briefly as the members worked on solo projects and participated in other groups of similar standing. In mid-2005 all three members of zer0cold reformed to pick up where they left off, and re-named the group A Static Dream (sometimes referred to as ASD). After a series of events involving confusion with the name, ASD officially became Lucius Hunt in December of 2005. Lucius Hunt is commonly known for brooding lyrics and a dark, haunting style and sound which typifies the group.
