Originally formed in 1994 (as Iron Angel), the band issued a self-titled demo two years later, which, after selling over 3000 copies on its own, landed the quintet a recording deal with Metal Blade Records and ultimately resulted in a pair of releases (2000's self-titled full-length and 2001's Theater of War). ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide
