Well, it started as a side-project of Skinny Puppy featuring the two SP
instrumentalists - cEvin Key and Dwayne Goettel - along with some friends
of thier's including Phil Western (Off & Gone, Cap'm Stargazer) and Mark
Spybey (Dead Voices On Air). Once Puppy split up and Goettel died, it
became Key's main gig. Spybey left earlier this year, and the current
line-up is Key, Western and Anthony Valcic, who worked with Puppy in the
studio quite a bit.
I'm assuming that you probably picked up III, which is quite different in
many ways from the earlier Download material. I actually find it has a lot
more in common with the trio's Plateau project (album Music For Grassbars
available on Cleopatra/Hypnotic). You can find a lengthy review that I
wrote of III on my website at:
