Haujobb (not to be confused with the demogroup of the same name) formed as a trio in 1993 in Germany, with B. Junemann being the third member to the current duo of Dejan and Daniel. Their first release was on cassette only, the now hopelessly out of print Drift Wheeler. This embryonic issue brought them to the attention of Off Beat records, who released their first CD, Homes and Gardens, later that same year.

There are a number of musical acts taking the name Inertia. (1) Inertia was formed in 1992 by Killing Joke Keyboard Player, Reza Udhin. After an extensive period with other industrial acts, Reza decided to concentrate on a solo project which brought together elements of Industrial and Techno to form something quite different to anything in the scene at that time. INERTIA were signed to Germany's Celtic Circle Productions in 1994, and released their debut MCD INFILTRATOR, in June 1995. This CD was a re-recording of the band's first demo tape.
Sometime around the winter of 2008, on a dark stormy night in the gray city of Milan, Army of the Universe are born. From the mind and synthesizers of Techno/Trance producer Albert Vorne (aka Trebla) and from the powerful voice of Lord K (Lead singer of Kult of the Skull God). The band today finalised by the distorted, weeping and power-driven guitars of Davil AOU’s takes inspiration from the experiments of the 80's electro-rock, fuelled with the futuristic re-interpratations of rocking 6 strings on top of twisted electronic landscapes and the collisons of sound of the end of the millennia.
Maldito started in mid 2006 with 3 original members which consisted of:
