Soon After their first full-length and promo tape made afterwards, the band got signed to Relapse. Thereafter, their music gathered more rock and doom metal influence in their music, probably due to influence of a musical trend started up by such bands as Xysma and Entombed.
The band splitted up soon after the release of "Reflections"

Lyrics :
We ring your bell or knock on the backdoor
we creep like thieves in the blackest night
even shadows are missing so you can't resist
fast open your door and truth hits like a fist
Just the moment of the sun
until my clouds come
again and bring the rain
one minute the feeling
that everything is bright
and then darkness steps in
Pretend to be oblivious
but something still gnaws
immortal life sin
inheritance of my deeds

Lyrics :
The fear within, a darkened chasm of memory
a burial ground where my flesh is bound
Scarred mind like stitches on a dead mans back
Rotten illusions of illusions... rotten
Embalmed mind, thousand decades of dream
I lust for death and peace at last
* i cast my my wordly flesh aside
to greet the spirits of those who died
and on my funeral no-oned cried
cause all the pity i denied
chorus:
lost souls haunt me till
the dawn that i watch
and mourn on my open grave
ive sworn an oath impure
infinity calls...
obscenities cant shadow
ethereal bliss...
incisions and ill join thee
*i look upon the brightening colors of morning sky
and wonder why it seems that i dont fit in this world
[this world]
i have this urge to learn something new
anything thatll just quench this thirsty
[why do i watch the dawn]
ive found out, that in life there are no real answers
so ill just have to die to attain knowledge to my... pain!! Cartilage - Why Do I Watch the Dawn ?](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/AUlVcVcaIT4/mqdefault.jpg)
