They run in the same orbit as Butcher Babies, Coal Chamber, Mushroomhead, Dope and My Ruin, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Bloodsimple and New Years Day, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation.
