History
Beginnings and debut album (2014–2015)
After disbanding Cathedral, Lee Dorrian joined the former members of Electric Wizard and Ramesses (Tim Bagshaw and Mark Greening) to form a new doom metal band.
The band made its existence known in August 2015, and released its eponymous debut album on 16 October 2015 to the label Rise Above Records.[2][3]
Line-up change, touring and Love from With the Dead (2016–present)
In January 2016, due to a disagreement with Dorrian, Greening was dismissed,[4] and replaced by Alex Thomas (ex-Bolt Thrower). The former bass player of Cathedral and Firebird, Leo Smee, is also part of the band. Because of the parallel activities of its members, the band gives little concerts. In 2016, however, they play at Roadburn Festival, Hellfest, and Copenhell and are also scheduled at Tuska Open Air and Loud Park Festival. On 22 September 2017 the band released their second album Love from With the Dead.
