History
After the breakup of Encrypted In Flesh, Matt Baumann decided to take his music in a different direction. Using many of the songs he had written for the previous band, he arranged each for a small orchestra context.
Membership was a revolving door; no two shows had the same lineup. In fact, with all the difficulty involved in getting so many people together, it was not unheard of for members to meet each other for the first time at a show.
