Cryogenic released its first demo in 1995. However, Bartosik left before the band could capitalise on its success on the local Sydney metal scene. Temporary drummer Grahame Goode from Neophobia played with the band on a key support date with Belgian thrash band Channel Zero but without a permanent drummer Cryogenic was on the verge of splitting up. Late in the year, Mortality's ex-guitarist Jenkins joined tha band as drummer, enabling them to support Fear Factory in mid-1996 before beginning work on a debut album, Suspended Animation in early 1997. At the same time, the band deliberately cultivated a following amongst the "Westy" headbangers of Sydney's western suburbs. In a further link to Jenkins' former band, in the aftermath to the disbanding of Mortality, Player was then replaced by that band's vocalist Darren Maloney, who re-recorded the album's vocal parts just prior to release.

Cryogenic appeared with Strapping Young Lad and then Cradle of Filth in late 1997; this began a string of tours and opening slots for the band that included a tour with Entombed and shows in South Africa, England and Germany to promote Suspended Animation. This was followed by an Australian tour with Slayer.

In November 1998, the band appeared at Metal For The Brain for the first time. They would go on to play twice more at Australia's largest heavy metal music festival.

In 1999, Cryogenic played at the Sydney Big Day Out and late in the year released their second album, ego-noria. 2000 featured heavy touring around Australia including the Big Day Out once again.

After a third Big Day Out appearance in 2001, Cryogenic went off the road for much of the year, ostensibly to work on another album. However, in October, it was announced that Maloney had been replaced by Steve Simmons (ex-Henry's Anger). Plans were then made for the band to relocate to the United States with tentative plans made for shows in Los Angeles. However, Simmons was injured in a car accident and was forced to leave the band.
