Following the near simultaneous disbanding of Pettit's band Condemning Salem, Green's band Helicon Blue, and MacNeil and Steele's band Plan 9 in 2001, the four musicians recruited drummer Jesse Ingelevics to form a new supergroup.

They chose the name Alexisonfire which was a derivative of lactating contortionist stripper Alexis Fire's name. She threatened to sue the band for copyright infringement but the lawsuit was never pursued.

Their first crude recordings were released as the EP 'Math Sheet Demos' in 2002. They soon came to the attention of new record label Distort Entertainment. Co-owner Greg Below was working with EMI and used his connection to record the band's self-titled debut at the company's in-house studio while negotiating a co-publishing and distribution deal.

'Alexisonfire' was released in September 2002 and its popularity grew by word-of-mouth. The band toured Europe and North America - with two cross Canada jaunts - playing with Billy Talent, GWAR, Juliana Theory, Godsmack, and Glassjaw. The album was soon certified gold in Canada.

Though EMI distributed the highly successful debut, the band opted to maintain independent control of their follow-up. They remained with Distort Entertainment who put them in the hands of Julius Butty at his studio near Hamilton, Ontario, to record the sophomore release.

'Watch Out!' was released in June, 2004, and debuted at #6 on the Nielsen Soundscan Top 200, and received gold certification in Canada in only twelve weeks. Ingelevics left the band in June 2004 to spend more time with his family. He was replaced by Jordan Hastings.

In August 2006 the band released their third album 'Crisis' and launched a tour across Canada with Every Time I Die, Cancer Bats and Attack in Black. Their American tour featured Moneen, Cancer Bats, and A Change of Pace. They headed to the UK in November 2007 where they were supported by Saosin, The Ghost of a Thousand and Your Rigamortus.

Alexisonfire began recording new material from February through March 2009. The songs helped them secure a new record deal with Dine Alone Records and announced they would play the 'Warped Tour 2009'.

The advance single called "Young Cardinals" was debuted in April 2009 with the video premiering in May 2009 along with the full album 'Old Crow/Young Cardinal' following in June 2009.

In the Fall of 2009 returend to Europe with Anti-Flag, Four Year Strong and The Ghost of a Thousand, and returned to Canada to open for Billy Talent in March 2010.

On February 16, 2010, the band was set to play a free all-ages show at the 2010 Winter Olympics but abandoned the stage a few seconds into their first song after the barricades broken and 19 people suffered injuries after being trampled.

In the last quarter of 2010 Alexisonfire released an iTunes exclusive Digital album entitled 'iTunes Originals', an experimental EP called 'Dog's Blood', and a digital version of their Aussie Tour 7" single.

Following their tour that year Dallas Green told the band his intention to leave Alexisonfire to focus on his solo act City And Colour. He agreed to not make any announcements while the group prepared to record their next album. However, an official public statement was finally made by the band August 2011 that Alexisonfire wouldn't have a new record but, instead, would be splitting up.

Green continued on with City and Colour while MacNeil would become the new vocalist for Gallows.
