Chuck and Frank started Triphammer with the idea of what they wanted in a band. They started jamming and began putting together songs that would end up being on their debut demo tape.

The demo tape It's About Time recorded in 1992 consisted of 4 songs The Life That's Left, The Real World, Subject:Human (which was a Rumblestiltskin song that Dan wrote) and Under One God? The tape sold close to 1,000 copies worldwide in the underground, and recieved high praise in Metal Maniacs Firing Squad demo reviews as well as many other publications and fanzines around the globe. They played shows up and down the east coast opening for such acts as Mucky Pup, Kings X, Overkill, Wargasm, Savatage, Scatterbrain and many others.

It also consisted of 4 songs which showed a more stream lined stripped down approach with a little more edge and even more melody. The songs Loaded Gun, Reflections, An Early Grave and Flies.
