2012, The idea of founding a new project besides their bands Fear My Thoughts, Backslide and Mongouse, already existed in the minds of the two brothers Marsn and Hanson since 2008. After the split of Mongouse they put even more focus on it and chose Pigeon Toe as a working title. With some rough song ideas Fear My Thoughts bandmate Norman Lonhard (now Triptykon) was asked to beat the skins and joined the band. Shortly after their well known fellow Ben Krahl (Final Kings) at bass was in too. After Fear My Thoughts split up, Patrick Hagmann joined Pigeon Toe on 3rd Guitar and Synths.
