The rhythm section of the defunct band Shatterbone created the group and released an album in 1995.[1] The band featured Greg Greer on vocals, Rod Arnett on bass, Dan Ryan on guitar, and video game music composer Frank Klepacki on drums.[1]

There's a Home

Their first and only album, There's a Home (1995), featured thirteen original tracks (one hidden) drawing influences from Tool and Soundgarden.[2] The hidden thirteenth track, "I will...", simply features a man reciting self-help instructions and a humorous mantra — "the louder the apartment, the happier I will be."[2]

The eleventh track, Destructible Times, was used the same year in the video game Command & Conquer, specifically in the credits for the Brotherhood of Nod faction. Developers at Westwood Studios requested the song's use because it "reflected the war aspect and bad-ass vibe of [Nod's] side."[3] The band was once recorded live while performing this song.[4] There's a Home was the first commercial album Klepacki's playing appeared on; he wrote several songs for the band. After the group broke up, Klepacki joined Home Cookin' while Arnett and Ryan formed Beatknuckle.[1] Klepacki still supports the band's music, offering There's a Home for sale on his website along with a t-shirt referencing Destructible Times.[5]
