The profound hatred. The primal. The malevolent rancor lying dormant in every living soul. We awaken it so that it may contribute to the glorious hell we inhabit. Deep inside the aphotic essence of existence, we vomit forth our black cancer. The eruption will be heard only by those who know to listen."

In 2007, they recruited Tony Martinez (ex-Viraemia) as Vocalist and Recorded the EP "The Image of The Antikhrist" at Villain Recording with Byron Filson, and released it in January 2008.
