They released the debut album Out of the Pit (2010), featuring a cover of "Ace of Spades" by Motörhead with a solo by Rik Emmett. Kobra and the Lotus released their self-titled second album Kobra and the Lotus (2012) under Universal Music Group, and performed at festivals such as Sonisphere Festival and Hellfest.
