In August 2011, Sho, Nob, and Masack, Fromus's instrument team formed then invited Hiro and Teru.[2] In October 2011, they appeared in a music event sponsored by Sanei Shobo Co., Ltd. which publishes street fashion magazine Book (Ohlie), and for the first time performed in public. In November 2011, they appeared in a music event sponsored by the street fashion brand Subciety (Sub-society). MY FIRST STORY, a mysterious band that unknown at all became a topic on Twitter in no time.

On April 4, 2012, 8 months after the formation, they released the first full-album with their own band name MY FIRST STORY. This work was the first release from the record label INTACT RECORDS (established by Core Trust which operates Subciety).[3] The music video of the lead song "Second Limit" from their first album was directed by Maxilla, a video production team known for coldrain, Crossfaith, and SiM.[4] On August 19, 2012, they appeared at SUMMER SONIC 2012.
