In september 2008, three men met at the Dundee University Bands society got together to jam some face shattering black metal with a shovel full of progression. Max, Dave and Andy proudly destroyed the atmosphere at the puny DUBS meeting and decided to get together to write some ear abusing Progressive Black Metal.
They named themselves Man Made Origin.
Then a figure emerged from the shadows of a DUBS live set, his name was Dan Hughes. A drummer from local bands Goom and Room 2, he pledged to learn bass so that Man Made Origin could tear a new one in the Local scene.
