History

Submersed was signed to Wind-up Records, and worked with Alter Bridge guitarist Mark Tremonti on its debut studio album, In Due Time, which featured the singles "You Run", "Hollow", and the title track. After a short break and the departure of their guitarist Eric Friedman, the band continued work on their second studio album with producer Rick Beato. Their sophomore and final album, Immortal Verses was released on September 18, 2007 and featured two singles; "Better Think Again" and "Price of Fame".

As disclosed in a blog on Submersed' myspace, the band has parted ways and will be dropped from Wind Up Records shortly. In the blog entry written by vocalist Donald Carpenter, he explained the breakup:

I know that all of you are wondering, what happened to Submersed? Well, the answers is... A lot.. This business and struggle to make it took its toll on the members... Two weeks before "Price of Fame" was slated for release, Tj, Kelan and Justin decided to move on with their lives and left SubmerseD. Garrett and I believing in "Price of Fame" made the choice to press on and see what could happen. Well, nothing happened... the single never had a chance... mind bottling... The fact is, is that a majority of our fanbase is unaccounted for due to Burning, making it impossible for the labels to understand just how many people really support us out there... When it comes down to it now, SubmerseD no longer has a place on Windup's roster and will be dropped shortly... I was trying to wait until things were a little more official before an announcement but you guys and gals are smart and I felt you deserved an explantion now rather than later.

On November 24, 2008 the band posted a blog on their MySpace that simply said "SUBMERSED WILL BE BACK!" No other details have been enclosed.

After the disbanding of Submersed, Donald Carpenter was in the band Million Man Army with Mike Moye and Nothing In Return with Lance Arny. Since the disbanding of Million Man Army, Moye has started his own production company called Mike Moye Productions (mikemoyeproductions.com) while Carpenter left Nothing in Return after a short time. He and Garrett Whitlock have since joined forces again in a new band called Eye Empire, along with former Dark New Day members, Corey Lowery and B.C. Kochmit. Their first demo "Victim" can be heard on their myspace.

Eric Friedman moved on to play lead guitar for the Los Angeles band Daughters of Mara. After Daughters of Mara disbanded, Eric joined Creed as a touring guitarist during their 2009 and 2010 tours.
