They wrote some songs together and noticed that it worked well, so they continued and first Deomoaufnahmen made ​​. They were supported by Curt Cuomo, who had also previously worked with Kiss on the album Carnival of Souls. They completed the group with drummer Brent Fitz and bassist Jamie Hunting, and the group went to the recordings for the first album, released in 1999 and was simply titled Union. With the album in hand, the band made ​​its way through the clubs around the world, which was traveling very successful especially Japan.
