Andy Schroeder played drums in Arizona-based death metallers Vehemence until the band decided to throw in the towel in October 2005, eight years after they had started.
After Vehemence had stopped, Andy Schroeder continued in the band Abigail Williams, also featuring formers Vehemence members Mark Kozuback (bass) and Bjorn Dannov (guitar).
January 2006 saw Andy Schroeder part ways with Vehemence. The drummer teamed up with Bjorn Dannov (guitar) and Mark Kozuback (bass), and formed a new project called The Symmetry In Chaos.
In February 2006 Vehemence announced their coming-back, though on their own terms, without any label pressures.
