The last line-up before the hiatus included vocalist Peter Espevoll, guitarists Tor Magne Glidje and Ole Halvard Sveen, drummer David Husvik, and bass player John Robert Mjåland. Notable original guitarists were Ole Børud (of Schaliach fame) and Christer Espevoll, who contributed significantly to the band’s songwriting.

All the band members share the Christian faith, which is apparent in their lyrics and themes. The band was on hiatus from 2017 until 2023, while Børud released an album with a new project known as Fleshkiller. On January 18, 2023, Extol announced a reunion for Furnace Fest of 2023, hosted in Alabama.
