The hard rock band was formed in 2000 by guitarist Shaun Lopez, formerly of the post-hardcore group Far, after he briefly played in an early version of Rival Schools and after he auditioned for various bands such as Foo Fighters.

Once again engineered, mixed, and produced by Lopez, 'We Are In This Alone' was finished in the fall of 2001 and the band released it soon afterwards.
