After the devastation caused by hurricane “Katrina” in 2005, two New Orleans residents, Keith Sierra Jr. (drummer from RAT IN A BUCKET), and Grant Tom (guitarist from DE CAPA PRETA) got together and decided to start a new band. Vocalist Shaun Emmons (also of RAT IN A BUCKET) and bassist Ryan Pomes (of MILKTOAST) joined the pair to finalize the line-up. The group named itself HAARP and eventually got signed by Housecore Records, owned by another famous Louisiana native, Philip Anselmo (PANTERA/ DOWN), who also produced HAARP's debut album. Album artwork was created by tattoo artist Paul Booth.
