[Machine Translation] Formed by three classmates from elementary school at Jiyu Gakuen in Higashikurume, Tokyo, their self-produced CD "euphoria ep" was released at live venues and on their own website in December 2001. 500 copies were sold out by word of mouth and are no longer available. Their music, influenced by MY BLOODY VALENTINE, SONIC YOUTH, YO LA TENGO, SIGUR ROS, SOUTH, BOARDS OF CANADA, etc., is a fusion of acoustic approach and rock. Their sound is a fusion of acoustic approach and rock. Their music is a fusion of acoustic approach and rock, and their songs and instrumentals (though written in English) show their attitude of accepting sadness in real life and trying to live towards hope. The band's name "euphoria" means "positive happiness" and "drug-induced happiness. Eupho" alone means "the sound of sound. The band's name was chosen with the hope that the "sound" of their music will satisfy "euphoria" and that the band's name can be taken in a double meaning, so that their music can be interpreted freely by the listener.

東京都東久留米市・自由学園で、小学校からの同級生3人で結成。2001.12にライブ会場と自らのホームページで発売した自主制作CD「euphoria ep」は、口コミで話題になり500枚を完売し、今は入手不可。現在、新宿JAMを中心にライブを行い、着実に動員を増やしている。MY BLOODY VALENTINE、SONIC YOUTH、YO LA TENGO、SIGUR ROS、SOUTH、BOARDS OF CANADA等の影響を受ける彼らの音楽は、音響的なアプローチとロックが融合したサウンド。そこから感じるのは(英語詩の曲とインストでありながら)、現実の生活の中で悲しみまっすぐに受け止め、希望に向かって生きようとする、彼らの姿勢だ。バンド名のeuphoriaは"肯定的な幸福感"と"ドラッグによる幸福感"の意味。"eupho"のみで"音の響き"という意味を持つ。彼らの鳴らす"音の響き"が"幸福感"を満たすものであるよう、またバンド名が二重の意味でとれるように、彼らの音楽が聞き手によって自由に解釈されるよう、そんな願いを込めてバンド名となった。
