P–O Svensson started the band as a hobby with Magnus Löfdahl.
The music style has changed with group membership and their sound became more consistent.
They have toured through Europe – Denmark, Russia, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Switzerland, Poland, Norway, Estonia as well as the United States, and Mexico.
On 14 December 2007 Colony 5 released the first single from their then-upcoming full-length album, Buried Again.
Buried Again was released in February 2008 on Memento Materia for Scandinavia, Infacted for Germany and ArtOfFact in the USA.
