Engrave was born when Koichiro Hiraide, the band’s drummer and lead singer, heard Pennywise’s self titled CD in summer 1994. The then high school student conected immediately with the energy mixed and aggressive lyrics that stormed out of the speaker even though he didn’t understand all of the lyrics. Koichiro and his friend, Atsushi Sakamoto formed the band to play the copies of Pennywise & Bad Religion.
In June 2001, Koichiro went to Stall no.2 studio in Redondo Beach, California to see Pennywise’s producer Darian Rundall at Stall no.2 and negotiated with him about the recording of Engrave’s 1’st album «Your Share Of It». Then other members of Engrave, Hideo Kataoka, Hiroomi Oba, Atsushi Takada flew to California to get ready for the recording. Also, Engrave had some gigs in Upland,Anaheim and Hermosa Beach, California before this recording.
June 2006 Engrave released their 2’nd album «Unwarned» on Koichiro’s own label called Sunset Records in Japan. Also, Engrave joined a completion CD called Unite! released in America and Mexico. In 2007, Engrave toured with a support bassist Akila Kinugawa from Fly81 in Japan. Guitarist Atsushi Takada dropped out during the tour then Atsushi Sakamoto who played with Koichiro when they were high school students joined again.
