Furnace, the brain child of DJ Resin aka Brian Artwick (member of Absu, Equimanthorn, Equitant), 
was created in early 1992 when he recruited Incarnus (aka Shaftiel of Dolmen, Absu, Equitant etc.) for vocals.
Shortly after Toxin, Radium, and Ortho joined on guitars.
Furnace immediately created their first self-titled demo which was released on Chamber Noise Recordings.
It was at that time that DJ Resin coined the term "Cybergrind" to describe their new mix of computer generated grindcore. After hearing the debut Furnace release, Gothic Records re-released it as a 7" vinyl EP entitled "Cremated Souls."
In early 1993 Furnace went through a complete facelift as DJ Resin replaced all other members of the group.
At this point Synthetic joined on vocals and shortly after #6 also joined on guitar.
It was at this time that Furnace abandoned the grindcore elements in their music
and switched to a noise/industrial format and incorporated mass visuals in their live shows.
