Rating: This album has not yet been rated.
The band released their debut, The Essence of the Game, in 1999 on Screaming Giant Records. The album was recorded within three weeks of the band's signing, leaving them with the feeling that it had been rushed and under-funded. One reviewer called their sound "hardcore rap", stating that it defied easy classification, and another that the album "single-handedly made the label live up to its name." Overall, their sound on this album was similar to that Korn. In 2000 they played about 150 shows, touring with Pillar and label mates Tasty Snax.
Lineup
