Formed in 1994, the group is known for its experimental music, politically charged lyrics, and intense live performances. They gained recognition in the late 1990s after the release of their debut album F#A#∞ (1998). This album was a critical and commercial success and was followed by two more critically acclaimed albums, Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven (2000) and Yanqui U.X.O. (2002).

Don't Bend! Ascend! (2012), Asunder, Sweet and Other Distress (2015) and Luciferian Towers (2017).
