Sickness is born in October 2002 with founding and yet original members Ivan Rivera (Bass) and Miguel Paredes (Guitar) with some other friends. The main idea of the band was to compose music no one has ever listened to. Starting to recruit members for the band, Sickness is finally a four-member band after the addition of Manuel Rocha(Guitar and Vocals) and Ricardo ''Nano'' Lopez(drums). Several shows came and the band started to grow in the local metal scene.
In August 2004, after completing 3 original songs, the band decided to record them with Argel Anaya (Zofra) in a little home studio that was set up at Ricardo's laundry room. Only 30 copies of Sickness' first demo ''Behind the Sins'' were distributed among the people in Agua Prieta and some very few in Douglas, Az.
After the recording of the first demo, Miguel Paredes left the band; he was going to move to Tucson, Az to continue his education. After the departure of Miguel, the band looked for several replacements but decided to keep the place Miguel left vacant in case he decided to return to the band. So was the case, and after three months he came back and immediately formed part of the line up again.
After the return of Miguel to the band and the creation of a few more original songs, Ricardo decides to leave the band for health problems. He was part of two bands and couldn't handle to work in both of them leaving him with the decision to leave Sickness. After the departure of Ricardo, Arturo Torres would take his place, but after a month of having personal problems for no reason with Ivan, the band hired a new drummer, Juan Moran Aka Juan X. The line up was again complete but all of the members felt like something else was needed. Claudia Corrales (keyboards) started practicing with the band and all liked the idea to have keyboards on the band so she got hired.
In March 2007, after completing 8 original songs, the band starts the recording process with Argel Anaya once again completing in a home made studio in Douglas, Az the recording of Sickness' second album ''Thoughts of Agony and Disaster''. 60 copies of this album were distrubuted, 40 being the normal edition and 20 the special edition with booklet with lyrics and stuff.
After the promotion of the second album and a few out of town shows, Manuel Rocha leaves the band for personal circumstances. Cesar calleja(guitar) takes his place in the lead and rythm guitars along with Miguel and Argel takes the vocal position.
With the new line up, the band starts the creation of new songs being Into the Nether world the first one. The band records this song along with two other old songs to get a Single version of the new album for promotion at Myspace. After that, the band recorded the third album ''Misery Debris'' at Myke's Place studio in Douglas, Az.
After more promotion and problems with the band, Argel leaves to start working once again in his original project Zofra. Leaving the vocalist place vacant, Jose Villalobos takes his place. On August 11th 2008, Sickness' Co-Funder and one of the two original members, Miguel, decided to leave the line up for unknown reasons. Also, this very same day, Jose Villalobos is dismissed from his duties due to lack of time for the band.
In August, 2008 Juan X leaves the band for also personal and other circumstances. After the hard decision of keeping an incomplete band or look for musicians, Ivan decided he won't throw away 6 years of work and starts working in new stuff. Ivan on bass, Claudia on the Keyboards, and Cesar on the guitars were the only 3 members left of a 6-piece monster. But, on August 21st., former Sickness member Manuel Proaño joins the band, once again, to rule the world, or at least try to.
