History & Biography Confessor's album appeared at the same time as Cathedral's debut on Earache and while the latter went on to be successful, the former was much criticized for its vocals.
A self-titled EP appeared a year later. There was some talk of a new album for 2000, but nothing has materialized. The band reunited for a one-off show in Raleigh, North Carolina on April 21, 2002 in memory of guitarist Colon who had died in February. C.O.C also played at that show.

The band's debut for the label Unraveled was out in early autumn 2005 and Season Of Mist will release a limited edition single entitled Sour Times. A DVD called Live In Norway was issued in mid-2006.
