The band went from strength to strength and were on for decent things as they smashed the live circuit and played everywhere they could!! They even played to a packed street for the 2012 Olympic torch run through the South playing infront of 500 + people, they also played every toilet venue you could think of. The band was going for half a decade and signed to independent label powerhorse records, the band was carrying itself independently and also building a really good name for itself. When the band finally split up drummer damien cogman was ready for the next stage of things to come and couldn't let the name die or the music or memorys go to waste, so he decided to pick up the guitar write some new tunes and take it solo! While recruiting friends from other bands to help him record a double a side 2 track DARK WORLD/ASHAMED! ollie rose(vocals dark world) richie towerton(vocals ashamed) Ben whatsley(lead guitars) Dean gladwyn(bass/rhythm guitar) damien cogman(drums/rhythm guitar and song writer) recorded at railside records salisbury and mixed by lewis John's at ranch studio southampton.
