The band was officially formed in 2001, although the material for the first album, Welt dates back to the mid-nineties, having been held up due to legal trouble with American Records. Welt was actually originally the title of the group (an acronym of "When Everyone Learns Truth"), until it was discovered that in the interval it had been taken by a Californian punk band. Al Jourgensen was also originally involved (who had the then band's name tattooed in anticipation of the project), and only one track he collaborated on has been leaked to the public, titled "Noreen". The music of that song later became industrial metal group Ministry's "The Fall", on their 1996 album Filth Pig.



The band toured in 2001 to support the release of Welt; the live band consisted of Nivek Ogre, Tim Skold (bass), cEvin Key (drums and keyboards), Loki der Quaeler (keyboards), and William Morrison (guitar). 2003 saw the release of a follow up, SunnyPsyOp (a play on the phrase "sunny side up" and military PsyOps). There were initially plans to tour for SunnyPsyOp, with Ministry in a festival type arrangement. These plans fell through, although much of the material from the second album had already been played live on the Welt tour.



ohGr has released three promotional videos, all directed by William Morrison. The first was a stop-motion creation for the track "Cracker", controversially featuring Ogre in animated form attacking celebrities such as Eminem and Trent Reznor. This related heavily to the lyrics of the track ("You think you're evil but you're not, still sucking life from the mainstream / It's so deluded give it up / What's that you hide behind your pile of shit?"). The second was a live performance of "Minus", reportedly filmed at a Texas venue from the 2001 tour. The third was for "MaJIK", from the second album; this also employed stop-motion, and was a collaboration with artist Thomas Kuntz. "Cracker" and "MaJIK" have both been played occasionally on MTV2 and Fuse. All three have been available through ohGr's website, and "MaJIK" appeared on the audio CD for SunnyPsyOp.
