History
Formation/The Lost. The Sick. The Sacred.
The band was formed in 2005 by
Guitarist John LaRussa (former member of the band
Narcissus) and
bassist Brian Pittman (former member of the band
Relient K). In 2006 they added
vocalist Ryland Raus prior to the recording and release of their first album,
The Lost. The Sick. The Sacred.. They are currently signed to
Solid State Records, a subsidiary of
Tooth & Nail Records.
The band has gone through several drummers. Bobby Poole II was with the band for the recording of
The Lost. The Sick. The Sacred. and much of the bands early tours. He was replaced on tour by Chris "Tank" Murk throughout the summer of 2007. Before going into the studio to record their second album,
I Swear..., the band chose Chris "Gator" Carroll as their new permanent drummer.
In July 2007 the band announced through a blog on myspace that Brian Pittman was leaving for personal reasons:
"After a lot of thought and consideration, Brian has decided to stay home. He will always have a place in Inhale Exhale, and we love him. But too many factors at home needed his attention. He is excited to be on a permanent break from music. He loves what he has done thus far in his career, but he needed to take care of some personal business."
I Swear...
Jeremy Gifford replaced Brian on the bass guitar throughout the rest of 2007 playing on tour dates and recording with the band. He left the band in 2008 to play guitar for the band
Lovedrug. A new Bass player was never officailly announced, but Greg Smith was eventually confirmed as Bassist.
On June 10, 2008 the band released their second album, "
I Swear..." with the lead single "It's Myself Vs Being A Man".
Bury Me Alive
It was announced on the band's myspace on May 12th that they are working on new material and will be recording during the summer and will have their next studio album out in the fall. In the middle of July, the band comfirmed that their next album would be called
Bury Me Alive.
