De formatie is sinds januari 2005 bij elkaar, maar heeft nog geen bandnaam. Naar verwachting zijn binnen een maand vier tot vijf nummers af en zal de groep starten met de opnames van de eerste demo.
Aan Blabbermouth.net vertelt Flynn:

"We're doing all originals — though we're going to cover an Atheist song — likely 'Unquestionable Presence'. Band influences cover a broad spectrum of death metal to jazz, and the music, so far, is reflective of those influences. The music is aggressive, technical, jazz/funk metal. Vocals are a mix of scream/sing — a la Pantera, Mudvayne, System Of A Down, Linkin Park, etc."

Na zijn vertrek bij Atheist voltooide Flynn zijn studie en begon aan een carrière. Bij elkaar duurde dat een jaar of twaalf. De drummer vervolgt:

"In December of 2004, I decided it was time to get back into playing seriously and began searching for musicians in Atlanta. While Atlanta is a major metropolitan area, rife with numerous musicians, it is always an exceptionally difficult task — mixed with a bit of luck — to find players that are not only talented but share common interests. I've found them — or rather they found me. I advertised in an online musician exchange (atlantamusician.com). I gave a brief history of my experience and said I'm available to play. [Gitarist] Sonny and [bass player] Stephen were both Atheist fans. They saw the listing and called me; we had lunch, we jammed, and the rest, to this point at least, is history."
