The band has gained some recognition for their non-stop flurry of releases of videos, singles and numerous appearances on tribute albums and compilations.
Balzac was founded by singer and songwriter Hirosuke Nishiyama, remaining the only constant member on the band since its creation.
In 1995 they signed to Alchemy Records where they only had one release, their first full length-album, The Last Men On Earth.
Afterward, the band signed with Diwphalanx Records, a small but recognized music label in the Japanese indie scene.
All later Japanese releases of the band from that point would be on either Diwphalanx or Evilegend Thirteen.
