- Treephort
From '01-'03, Knight provided keys/vocals in a band Called Treephort from the Marietta area of Georgia. During the summer of '03, the group snuck into Warped Tour with the Phenomenauts, performing with minimal equipment. They continued playing as a sideline band (unapproved) without interruption until their behavior got offensive. Treephort was a spectacle at Warped Tour but came to an end when band members Joe Klein and Knight were detained by the cops 2 days in a row and were asked to leave the music event.
- Nightmare Pizza
While in Treephort, singer Lee Satterfield and Kylemotron began writing lyrics to music on a demo keyboard. By the end of the tour there were 32 songs written, all of which were recorded on September 11, 2003. The short-lived project was called Nightmare Pizza.
