Thomas Alford (Sandstone, Tim “Ripper” Owens(Live)) and drummer Cameron Ashlund-Glass (Darkest Era) and recorded “Paradise Over”.
On it’s first week of release “Paradise Over” became the 3rd best selling metal release worldwide on bandcamp and has since been featured
heavily on a number of radio stations world wide. It was also featured on WeLoveMetal’s Top 10 releases of October 2014 and UberRock.com’s
