The two sisters Alexia and Anissa Rodriguez formed Eyes Set to Kill with Lindsey Vogt in 2003 and initially started as a three piece metalcore band. After Vogt left the group in 2006, the band underwent several changes but now consists of Cisko Miranda and Caleb Clifton joining the stunning sisters as primary members.
