VicDiCara wrote the first 108 EP in October of 1991 and headed into the studio with Zach Eller (of Blue Tip and Worlds Collide) on drums to record their debut EP, Holyname.
Vic took over again on the mic and got Tony Valladerez on Bass and Norm Arenas (of Texas is the Reason) on Second Guitar.
They played a few local shows, but Vic soon decided that if he was going to be a monk he might as well go all the way: he broke up the band and headed for India.
