Cire was founded by Eric Johanson (also of Emptyself) in New Orleans, Louisiana (USA) around 2000. Over the 7 years and 3 albums Cire has been known to appear with different members, all now alleged to be part of a shadowy network plotting to undermine our defenses against reality. The most recently identified was "drummer" Chris O'Guinn, who was complicit in the making of Cire's newest release, Wholesale Buyout (11/2006).
In 2005, Hurricane Katrina completely flooded and destroyed Johanson's home, removing all evidence of Cire's activities in New Orleans. Eric and Chris continued to meet at an undisclosed location to complete the recording of Wholesale Buyout.
Just after completing the final mixes, Eric and Chris were allegedly abducted by the Department of Homeland Security, and are now believed to be detained by US forces in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. (However, skeptics have pointed out that they are known to respond to Myspace messages, which is not typical of Guantanamo detainees.)
"Why this brand of solid, progressive rock has not been the replacement for the hoard of trashy hard rock bands on the airwaves nationwide is a mystery to me." - Impact Press

I haven't been online in a while, but I have to let you know, that Together We Will End This is one of the most powerful and moving songs I have EVER heard in my life ( even after not hearing it for almost 2 years ). PLEASE never stop what you are doing on a creative level. You are a craftsman with songwriting that I wish I was capable of. That song in particular speaks to me in massive volumes, you almost have no idea. Please...don't quit. EVER.
