A banda foi formada em 1984 por Chris Cornell na bateria e vocal e Hiro Yamamoto no baixo; posteriormente adicionada por Kim Thayil na guitarra. Pouco tempo depois Scott Sundquist assumiu o lugar na bateria, para que Cornell pudesse se dedicar exclusivamente aos vocais. A banda gravou duas músicas que apareceram em uma compilação da C/Z Records chamada Deep Six, que também incluia músicas das bandas Green River, Skin Yard e The Melvins.
