Formed in 2016 by vocalist Stephen Babcock (Diskreet/Gornography), guitarist Ryan Bender (Obliterate The Apex/Marasmus/Ancient Creation/Whoracle) and guitarist JD Cantrell (Damned By The Pope/Moiré), they began to envision and shape their brand, modifying the lineup until settling with the addition of guitarist Joshua Riley (Unmerciful) and bassist Spencer Halstead (Damned By The Pope). In this inception, Ryan Bender would undertake the responsibility of drums.
With a full lineup realized, The band then spent a couple of years writing and honing their sound, occasionally accepting offers to be opening support for local shows in their hometown of Kansas City, MO. In 2019, circumstances beyond their control forced them to find a new drummer. They recruited long-time friend Chris Thorpe to fill the position and with the new lineup, Kohnerah entered the studio to record their first full length album.
