In February 2004, guitarist Dye (former Laissez Faire, Hanoru and more) and vocalist Aika (former Crescent Moon and others) decided to form a new band. Dye contacted Sho, with whom he had played before in the bands Hanoru and Red-ey', and recruited him as the bassist of the band. Chama (former Garvella) joined as the second guitarist and Aki (former Variable Messiah and support member of Oto-oni) became their drummer. The line-up was then complete, consisting of five talented and very experienced members.

In June they had their first performances and their first release followed shortly after. Kanjou 73 gousen was released in August and their second single followed in December.

2005 started with various performances, mostly at big events. In May they released their third maxi-single and shortly after, in July, Dye left the band. Nonetheless, the four members of the band continued and, after releasing a second press of their first maxi, they released the maxi-single Himawari in November.

In 2006 the band performed at various places and another maxi-single Sanshokubinsen, was released in February. Then in March, another member left the band; this time it was Aki. While these kinds of member changes often lead to the whole band breaking up, the three of them continued. However, they didn't remain a three-man band for long. During their one-man concert on July 2nd, To-ki was introduced as the new drummer of the band.

In March 2007, after the release of two more singles, Naoki joined the band as the second guitarist. About a month later, in April, the band released their very first full album, Negai..., which was, of course, accompanied by many concerts to promote the release.

Unfortunately, that summer the band announced they were disbanding. They performed for the last time on October 8th. This performance was recorded and released on DVD in January 2008.

Currently, it seems that only vocalist Aika is active in the music industry and is pursuing a solo-career.
