The band would go through various name changes including: Next of Kin and Mobius Drain. Erik played guitar and sang. When he enlisted the help of his friends, they did not know how to play their instruments. It took a year or so for the band to develop throughout this growth period, and the sound evolved and explored quite a bit. Mark handled bass and Greg took on the skins.
