The line up currently features Wizard Oz (Guitar), Ant Meachen (Vocals), Dave De La Haye (Bass) and Matthew Hekker (Drums).

The band have recently enjoyed good reviews foillowing gigs featuring the new album, and have been well recieved playing gigs in venues as diverse as Butlins Skeggness (Finalists in Kerrang! Unsigned Live competition), The Snooty Fox (Wakefield), The Magic Circle Festival (3rd in Battle of the Bands in Bad Arolsen Germany), The Sword Brothers Festival (Support slot at Juz Andernach, Germany), The Unicorn Kentish Town London (Album Release Party), The Bridge House 2 Canning Town London (Ozmosis Promotions opening night).
