In 2015, Sato and Konishi left the group, and Yamazaki joined as a new member.
From the song "クラウチングスタート" (crouching start) debuted in January 2015, Yoshimasa Terui (Haisuinonasa, Siraph) had been in charge of music producer. Terui's complicated music incorporating elements of post-rock, mathrock and electronica, and the contrast of four young voices had brought a hot topic.

In May 2018, a mini album "alight ep" was released, debut from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment, a label they transferred to.
In May 2019, Kazama 'graduated' from the group and the remaining three continued the group until 2020.
In May 2020 they announced that they would split on 6 September 2020, and at the final concert they played 50 songs (all that they'd ever released) during 4 hours of performance.
