David Sroczynski was the initial drummer in Soul Embraced, featuring Evanescence drummer William "Rocky" Gray on guitar.
Originally a side project of drummer David Sroczynski and William "Rocky" Gray from Shredded Corpse, Soul Embraced dissolved after creating one song for a metal compilation. Rocky would reform the band with fellow Living Sacrifice member and Christian metal legend Lance Garvin on drums and his brother in-law Chad Moore on vocals.
