They released a split single “NEWROCK E.P” with The Mirraz in 12/2007 and their 1st album “IRIE RACKIT” in 10/2008. After the release of a mini album “I Like Beethoven. Especially His Lyrics” in 6/2009, they suddenly went on hiatus from 1/2010. In 4/2010, they announced that the band will be back in the scene with just the members of Ryosuke Irie and Takeshi Irie. They released their 2nd album “9 Stories” in 4/2011 and 3rd album “Good Days” in 10/2011. They have now welcomed Yusuke Matsuda (B) and Hiro Ohya (Dr) as support members. In 2025, the band celebrated its 20th anniversary. While working on their 5th album, they also performed several live shows towards the end of the year, showing signs of a renewed surge in activity. The new track "144 (Early Take)" which is also planned for inclusion on their 5th album, possesses the raw energy and beauty characteristic of Veni Vidi Vicious, while hinting at the heavy and meticulous production style that the band, now a six-member lineup with the addition of close friend and guitarist Yusuke Matsuzaka (QUATTRO/lowtide) as a support member in November 2025, is aiming for. Hiroshi Ikeda of hmc studio, who has handled recordings since their 1st album, handled the mastering, resulting in a finish that conveys the analog feel and warmth unique to home recordings. https://www.instagram.com/venividivicious_official https://x.com/venividiviciou1 https://www.youtube.com/@herushia
