[edit] History
The group formed in 1990, establishing itself on the eastern US hardcore/metal scene through frequent touring and a few demo releases. They are frequently noted to have started the "Metalcore" movement which infused metal and hardcore into a single genre. In 1995, the band released an EP after vocalist Jorge joined, and toured with Biohazard.[1] Upon the release of their 1996 debut, the band scored a slot opening for Fear Factory and toured Europe in 1998 with Böhse Onkelz.[1]
