The Underneath (band)

Transtic Nerve was formed in November 1995 with the lineup of Tal on guitar, Ryo on bass and Masaki on drums.

The next year, Transtic Nerve released their first single, "Shindou", and their first major label album, Cell Flash, on Unlimited Records in July 1999.

The Underneath eventually announced their first album, Moon Flower, to be released in March 2008, first in the United States on the newly formed JShock label, partly founded by Yoshiki of X Japan.

After the completion of the Taste of Chaos tour, the band performed for the first time in Japan at the hide memorial summit.

There, they played on the second day of the festival, alongside fellow Taste of Chaos bands D'espairsRay and Mucc, and others including X Japan, Luna Sea and Dir En Grey.

The band played along with fellow Japanese groups MarBell and Daizystripper at Otakon 2008, on August 10, 2008 in Baltimore, MD.
