History
DeRosa, Ruda, and Seefried were previously in a group known as Gods Child; and had released a handful of LPs under that moniker for Warner Brothers records. In 1994, Gods Child album Everybody had a national hit single, "Everybodys 1", which topped the Billboard Magazine "Modern Rock" and "Album Rock" categories simultaneously. By year's end, they had performed on a nationally televised show from host Conan O'Brien, as well as at a WNEW radio Christmas show at New York’s Roseland Ballroom.
Their second album Aluminum, produced by Tim Palmer was critically acclaimed but the single "Female Elvis" only charted regionally.

Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Considered in its entirety, psychoanalysis won’t do. It’s an end product, moreover, like a dinosaur or a zeppelin; no better theory can ever be erected on its ruins, which will remain for ever one of the saddest and strangest of all landmarks in the history of twentieth-century thought.”
—Peter B. Medawar (1915–1987)
“There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
“Three million of such stones would be needed before the work was done. Three million stones of an average weight of 5,000 pounds, every stone cut precisely to fit into its destined place in the great pyramid. From the quarries they pulled the stones across the desert to the banks of the Nile. Never in the history of the world had so great a task been performed. Their faith gave them strength, and their joy gave them song.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)
