The year after was added on guitar, the band played many shows in the nearby area and recorded two more demo tapes. In 1996 they were approached by the local record label, and recorded the EP, Affliction.

In the beginning the main influences was bands like Snapcase, Earth Crisis, Refused, Breach, Biohazard and Sick of It All. But around 1997 the members began to be more and more influenced by bands like Faith No More, Sepultura and Korn. The demo Dramatically Uninspired, recorded the same year, resulted in a record deal offer from Europe (which was turned down). The band recorded their last demo in 1998 and decided to split up short after that.
