The band originally consisted of seven members, and released a demo CD which ended up selling 3,000 copies. Unfortunately, one of the band members, the saxophonist Seika, left the group (the other was Hiko, who left after he married). After his departure, Ace?trigger renamed himself TAKUYA? and the band renamed itself to UVERworld. According to an interview with the band there was another vocalist who left, however this vocalist hasn't yet been identified.
