Successively Leonardo left the band for problems with the work . The 6th January 2009 the drummer Domenico Carnevale joined the band that returned a trio . The 2nd of May they recorded their first demotape in 4 tracks named “Somber Light ” . The 11th February 2011 they recorded in their rehearsal room their first, album named “Akira” which describes a perfect maturation of their sound, near to bands like Sonic Youth and Explosions in the Sky, with completely instrumental songs.
