Around the end of the 1990's, in a quiet Quebec town called Gatineau, two young guitarists joined their talents and began composing grinding metal riffs. Emerging from the era of such old school bands as Metalica, Pantera and Sepultura into the darker world of Cannibal Corpse and Suffocation, they became the pillars of a band originally called Morbidity. Those two guys are named Francis Bock and Christian Villeneuve.
