SULFURIC ACID was created in 2002 by MASAKI (ex BACK BONE) on vocals and TOMOZO on guitar. Later, the two were joined by SEIJI (ex CANVASE) on drums. SULFURIC ACID also started off having the support members Koji (ex :kaLuma; guitars) and Yu-u (bass).
SULFURIC ACID's first live was held in October but it was a secret live and it's hard to find any information about it. In February 2003, the band held their first oneman concert. Audience admission was free and the single "SULFURIC ACID" was distributed. A twenty date tour, Toumei FOUR_SIX_FOUR_NINE, began towards the end of the year with the final held in November.
July 21st, Yu-u left to join Cryella and then Vinett and Yanagi took his position. SULFURIC ACID took part in an omnibus from their label Sequence Records towards the end of the year.
Their first mini album was released on March 15th, 2004 and was entitled Sulfur Drug. They then held a oneman tour from July to September with the final in Meguro Rock May Kan. Only a few days after this, Koji left the band.
After another maxi was released in March 2005, the charismatic and very well known guitarist Hizaki (ex Schwardix Marvally) was recruited. MASAKI had previously worked with Hizaki on Hizaki's solo project "Dance With Grace" and thought that Hizaki would be a nice addition to the band. Since joining, Hizaki has brought along his powerful composition style and masterful guitar technique and combined them with SULFURIC ACID's existing sound. The band released two singles at the end of the year with each one coming in two different versions.
This year, they've released the mini album salfjuerik aesid and a photobook with the suggestive title SEXUALITY FILE (TOMOZOxMASAKI). Though unfortunately, at their October 8th oneman in Hamamatsu Force, SULFURIC ACID disbanded. The members had stated that it was almost impossible for the five of them to work together as a unit and that solo projects at this point will be better. As a 'parting gift', the band released a CD and DVD on October 11th, 2006. The CD is entitled "Kyousei In'youOngenshuu" and features twelve best of tracks while the DVD, "Kyousei In'you" features digest clips from their previous releases as well as new digest clips.
As of 2007, Hizaki has joined the band Versailles, as well as continuing to work on his solo career, the HIZAKI Grace Project.
