the history behind the band is mostly that they formed around 2000 or somethin like that, pete had addictions to all sorts of drugs inc. crack and heroin and he broke into crals house and stole stuff to sell to buy drugs with this caused conflict which ended up in pete being sacked in 2004 and the band splitting later on
