Biography
Drawing equally from noise rock bands like The Jesus Lizard and post-metal bands like Isis, the band developed a following after the release of their debut album, Trophy.

Made Out of Babies were signed to The End Records for the release of their 2008 album The Ruiner. On March 13, 2012, lead singer Julie Christmas posted on her Facebook page that the band was no longer together.
