Bloodline Severed started out as a band named Markd in 1998, with bassist David Wichard, vocalist Corey Weaver and two others. The band performed in a more Christian rock genre, similar to P.O.D. and Creed. The band went through some lineup changes and a name change, from Markd to Bloodline Severed. The name comes from. By 2003, the band's lineup consisted of Wichard, Weaver, guitarists Joshua Lambeth and Dempsey Mills Jr., keyboardist Stephen Horton and drummer John Snyder.
