Biography
Cage formed in 1992 with the original lineup being, Sean Peck (Vocals), David Garcia (Guitar), Eric Horton (Guitar), Mike Giordano (Bass), and Damian Arletto (Drums). Peck had previously been the leader of a band called Nomad, while Garcia and Giordano had performed with Crusher. Garcia and Horton had also been a part of Nomad with Peck. Even though the band formed in 1992, the band did not release their first album, Unveiled, until 1998, likely due to it being self-produced. By 1999, Arletto had exited the band and was replaced by Mike Nielson.
The band became known around the time of their second album, Astrology, released in 2001, via Molten Metal. The album was Nielson's debut with the band. Shortly after this period of time, Cage signed to Massacre Records, then home to artists such as King Diamond, Virgin Black, and Mystic Circle. Following their signing, the band released their third album, Dakrer Than Black, which came out in 2003. By this time, Anthony McGinniss had joined as the band's new guitarist, replacing Horton.
In early 2010, original bassist Mike Giordano and lead guitarist Anthony Wayne McGuiniss exited the band.
In 2010, the band recruited members; bassist Steve Brogden (guitarist/vocalist for the power/thrash metal band Howler) and former Brick Bath bassist Pete Stone.
As of 2018, the band currently double as The Three Tremors, a collaborative effort of all current members of Cage, Jag Panzer vocalist Harry "The Tyrant" Conklin, and former Iced Earth and Judas Priest vocalist Tim "Ripper" Owens.
