Klank began in December 1993, following
Circle of Dust's
Klayton disbanding the live lineup of the band, which included Daren Diolosa, nicknamed Klank. The album came out through the label and by 1997, the project began to tour with a lineup of Diolosa on vocals, guitars, and keyboards, with
Every Day Life members Mike Niosea on guitars, Carl Weaver on guitars, and Eric Wilkins on drums. In 1999, the band recorded their sophomore album,
Numb, which featured an entirely new lineup, including Danny "Ducci" Owsley on guitars, John Zaletel on drums, and Pat Servedio on guitars, bass, and programming. The album was the first release under Klank's new label, SmokeDogg Productions, and was also released on Progressive Arts Music. The album would later be re-released under the title of
NUMB...Reborn. According to Klank, "Ducci" joined the band by recommendation of
Bryan Gray, who had filled in with the band who Diolosa had worked with in
The Blamed and
Six Feet Deep. Diolosa met Ducci by Gray and would ask him to join. Ducci would just graduate from school before going on tour the next day. However, by 2010, the band consisted of Diolosa, Servedio, and a returning Eric Wilkins. In 2012, the band released
Urban Warfare. The album featured a guest spot for
Doug Pinnick of
King's X, who Diolosa had been friends with for many years. V13.net gave the album a review, stating that "At the end of the day I feel Urban Warfare is the best Klank effort to date; they have virtually perfected their brand of infectiously-catchy, insanely groovy metal." During that same year, Klank would also record the score for a documentary created by Bruce Moore, who apparently was a longtime friend of his, titled
Metal Missionaries, which would feature bands in the
Christian metal genre, including
Vials of Wrath,
A Hill to Die Upon,
Frost Like Ashes, BoughtXBlood, and
Antidemon. ==Members==
