The two met at a show Steve Stine was playing at in the U.S. They began writing songs back and forth, via email and GrimmStine is the result. The band was formed in 2008, and released an album, the self-titled "GrimmStine", independently the same year.
The band's style is a mix of classic and modern metal to create a CD of great diversity.

Grimmstine Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Total miss belief in all that’s happening
Blood trails on the side walk
Ever etched for all eternity
Call 911, tell um heavens coming down
All hell has broken loose there’s panic all around
Call 911 tell um heavens coming down
Call 911
Seems there’s no escape from this living hell
Bodies all are taking leaps of faith
All I see I can’t believe
Tempers risen ready for revenge
Call 911 tell um heavens coming down
All hell has broken loose there’s panic all around
Call 911 tell um heavens coming down
We’ve gotta help ourselves build up from the ground
Hell hath no fury like a nation scorned
Yeah yeah
Call 911 tell um heavens coming down
All hell has broken loose there’s panic all around
Call 911 tell um heavens coming down
We’ve gotta help ourselves build up from the ground
Call 911 heavens coming down
All hell has broken loose there’s panic all around
Call 911 tell um heavens coming down
We’ve gotta help ourselves build up from the ground
From the ground
If its war you wanted you’ve got it x4
The lyrics of Grimmstine's song "911" reflect a distressing situation where there is chaos, violence, and fear. In the first stanza, the singer describes an event where people are clueless about what is happening, and there is disbelief among them. There are also blood trails visible on the sidewalk. The chorus then emphasizes the urgency and necessity of calling 911, conveying that a catastrophic event has occurred, causing panic and disorder. The singer urges us to help ourselves in rebuilding from the ground.
In the second stanza, the situation becomes even more perilous than before. Bodies are falling or jumping, and the singer is in disbelief about what he is seeing. Tempers are high and people are ready for revenge. This stanza further emphasizes the deteriorating situation, leading to the final verse in which the singer emphasizes that the nation has been scorned, and there is no fury like a nation scorned. The imperative call of "Call 911" is repeated in the last lines, urging people to call for help as everything seems to be falling apart.
