In these past eight years, the band went through numerous changes, Kombat - the only member remaining from the original line-up - working during this time with Cenzurah, Nextrick, DJ Borac, Aforic and Underman.
It looks like the year 2005 was a good one for KST: Maerry joined the group, along Kombat and Dj Faibox, and the trio started working on an official debut album.
