The video included actress Kaho Seto and the video received high praise.[3] On August 5, 2015, they released their debut album, The Show, under Rallye Label. The album was popular so much that their first live show at Shibuya WWW sold out.[4] On January 13, 2016, they released the single "Moon," alongside a music video that starred Shiori Takei.[4][5] On July 6, 2016, they released their second album Cigarette & Alcohol.[6][7] In 2017, they released the four-track single "Virtual Gravity," which included the previously unreleased song "Sherry."[8]
On May 23, 2018, they released the EP 22, which included the single of the same name.[9] In April 2018, the band held a tour for their upcoming album dressing.[10] On September 25, 2018, they released the single "Lonely Lonely" featuring singer Chara, with a music video directed by Katsuki Kuroyanagi.[11][12] On October 3, 2018, they released the album dressing.[13] It was their first album release on a major record label, being JVCKenwood Victor Entertainment.[14][15] In 2019, they released the single "Actor," which was previewed at Fuji Rock Festival 2019.[16][17]
On November 25, 2020, the band released the album Blend, their first album in over two years. The album was recorded at their own homes because of the COVID-19 pandemic in Japan.[18] The song "Wonderland" was featured as the theme song for the web series Match Girls.[19]
