It wasn't till early 2004 James found a line up stable enough to record the debut album "Unleashed". He was joined for the recording process on drums by Seanie Walsh & bass guitar by Paul Newell. The album was recorded engineered & produced by James in his home studio.
The album got such a great response when it was released a giging line up was put together to help promote it.In came original member John Hanly on bass Norman Rafter on guitar & Paul Donnellan on drums. With this line up the band toured the Uk with Marshall Law, made their first appearance at the bloodstock metal festival UK , Up the hammers festival in Greece & along the way supported Saxon.
Kevin Ryder replaced Paul Donnellan on drums in March 2008 & in July 2008 John Hanly left the band.
