Azhar Levi joined Kekal on 1996, the same year that the band released their official demo, Contra Spiritualia Nequitiae.

In the year 2003, Kekal released 1000 Thoughts of Violence and received positive media reviews which led to their first international tour in 2004.

Shortly after this success, Kekal was back in the studio to record their official reunion album, Acidity, which was released in 2005.

Front man Jeff Arwadi said that although this closed a door, Kekal would continue as a musical unit.

Despite the fact that the band is now member-less, Kekal has continued to function as a musical unit, with all 3 former members including Azhar Levi contributing to the band's eighth studio album, entitled 8 in 2010, and ninth studio album Autonomy in 2012.
