Although in 2001 SHELTER planned to break up after their comeback hardcore record "When 20 Summers Pass" the legendary band from New York City belt out another record titled "The Purpose, The Passion." While Porcell left the band to start a family, Ray "Raghunath" Cappo moved to Los Angeles to study martial arts and nutrition and to become a yoga instructor and nutrition consultant. Ray, as the only original member, felt he had one more album left in him, which resulted in the release of "The Purpose, The Passion."
