Their first album appeared almost immediately and the band played tours with Psycroptic and Birds in a Row and at Hammersonic in Indonesia in early 2015. 2015 was a busy year with a string of tours including those with Suffocation and Decapitated, Psycroptic and The Black Dahlia Murder and King Parrot and High Tension.
