The band formed in December 1997 from the ashes of other local hardcore bands.

The original line-up was Kobbi (guitar, ex-Urban Skate Fanatics), Fede (drums, ex-USF as well), Haim (bass, ex-Wackout, Shma Israel), Adi (vocals, ex, uh, about half of the local bands ever: Public Domain, Ethos, Useless ID, Shma Israel, Nekhei Naatza - and also played with Negative Impact for a while) and Federico (ex Nekhei Naatza and temporary member of USF).

The name was chosen as an effort to bring the sublimed bloody facts of Zionism and Israel's history back into its collective consciousness.

After rehearsing for a couple of months, we were ready to make our first appearance, as the only hardcore band in an all Black/Metal gig in the city of Haifa, held in April 1998. That show was interesting, despite the fact that we only managed to play a couple of songs.

After playing a couple of shows with us and recording a demo, Kobbi decided to quit. Jonathan (ex-Oi Va'avoi, Angriculture, as well as a short-term USF member during their US tour) had just come back from the States and was recruited as a replacement for Kobbi. A remarkable show we played was a benefit for Al-Atrash, a family living near Hebron in the occupied territories whose house was demolished 3 times by the Israeli army.

2000 was an inactive year for us. We only played one show (supporting the amazing Y from Germany when they came over early this year), due to the fact that band members moved to Europe. Still, we're not breaking up and are currently thinking about the possibility of recording new songs early next year (and playing some shows as well) probably somewhere in Europe.

Our debut 7"ep on Thought Crime did much better then we expected, selling its first pressing out in matters of months. The 2nd press (of another 1000 copies) is also about to be sold out, and we're really glad to see Thought Crime work hard promoting the 7". Our 2nd 7", which was delayed for more then a year, should be out really soon on Lengua Armada. Not so long ago 625 Prod. released an international HC compilation CD + EP called "Barbaric Thrash Detonation" featuring tons of bands, including us.

Our 2nd 7" was finally released this summer (2001) on Lengua Armada. But if you send a letter to the PO Box appearing there, chances are that it'll never arrive to us, so please write again to the e-mail address below. We're really sorry about any inconvenient it may had caused. If you are interested in getting a copy of any of our 7"'s, please write to Thomas at Thought Crime: thoughtcrime[AT]berlin.sireco.net He's 100% honest and trustworthy and runs an excellent and cheap distro.
