Chimaira was formed in 1998, composing itself of Mark Hunter (Vocals), Jason Hager (Guitar), Rob Arnold (Guitar), Jim LaMarca (Bass), Andols Herrick (Drums) and Chris Spicuzza (Keyboards and Electronics). Their first EP, This Present Darkness, was released on January 11, 2000, on East Coast Empire records. This EP featured a few songs that were later re-recorded for their major label release on Roadrunner Records, entitled Pass Out of Existence. Jason Hager later left the band after Pass Out Of Existence due to family issues and the band gained Matt DeVries, a long time friend of the band and guitarist for the Cleveland based band Ascension. Pass Out of Existence didn’t sell that many records when it was released in 2001, but The Impossibility of Reason, released in 2003, was enough to fund Chimaira’s extensive touring with In Flames, and their second-stage performance at Ozzfest, also in 2003.

Chimaira is a six-membered metalcore band from Cleveland, Ohio, whose
name comes from a monster in ancient Greek mythology: a lion, with an
additional head of a goat located in the neck, and a snake as its tail.
Its members describe the band as being of “The new wave of American
Heavy metal” and are firmly in the post-thrash metalcore slot in their
music style.
