The band consists of three members: Julius A. Buck (guitar, vocals), J.D. Romeo (bass, vocals) and Rob C. Sterling (aka Ricardo Baron, aka Rob Farren, drums). Buck (a.k.a. Adam Rabuck) and Romeo formed the Impulse International after the dissolution of Buck's former band Dirt Bike Annie. [1]
Originally called The Impulse, a man claiming to own the trademark for "Impulse" relating to music performance threatened to sue them. "The name of your band is in direct conflict with a Trademark that I own. Please find another name for your band and remove all references from the web including the name IMPULSE," he said. "This could get very expensive for you as I have owned the name Impulse under class 041 Entertainment services in the nature of band performances, since 1983. Please respond, as this is getting ready to be turned over to attorneys." They opted to add "International" to their name.[ citation needed ]

The band often played shows in the greater New York City area before Buck relocated to Tampa, Florida in 2007.
