Training for Utopia subsequently became popularin the Christian metal scene during its active years, although its music was not specifically religious.

Their brief existence included a tour with Zao and at the time the upcoming band Spitfire. It was during this time that the band hired CarlosColón (later to join The Deadlines) for their 1998 tour providing synthesizers & live guitar to their live show.
