Originally from Reston, Virginia, the band formed in 1987, its members including Joe Banks, Doug Crosby, Brien Stewart, and Mikey Warstler.
The only original remaining member, guitar player Joe Banks, teamed up with rival band LDK's (Learning Disabled Kids) Tim Barry.
They moved to Richmond in 1990, and soon, after numerous line up changes, put together a solid lineup to release their first album Satiate in 1992.
The band has never officially disbanded, but has not released any new material since 2002 and stopped playing live shows in 2007.
On March 26, 2019, the band announced a reunion show at The National in Richmond, Virginia, scheduled for July 19.
