The band may have had a different name upon formation, or KOUJI's previous band may have used the same name. Details are unclear.
VAJURA forms.
Hidetaka of Mystic Moon is said to have been drummer in a band named VAJURA, but it's unclear if that refers to this VAJURA. If so, it would probably mean that this band lasted a few more years and he was drummer near the end, as he didn't start Mystic Moon until 2000.
The band's first lineup is also unclear, except that HIROKI replaced an earlier vocalist.
Around this time, the unknown previous vocalist secedes and HIROKI joins.
