The band was originally formed in 2002 by Sougyo and former drummer John. They self produced and released their first MCD "Touta" on their own label SMD Records. They released their debut album "Akai Yami" on Missing Link Records/Exotic Corpse Records (Australia), Destructure (Europe) and Level Plane Records (USA) in 2007. In 2009, a split EP with Drain The Sky was released.
Birushanah mixes metal percussion with Japanese traditional scale and extreme genres of metal, much in the vein of the most experimental works of compatriots, Corrupted. Exclusive track "門 (Mon)" appears on compilation "Bishamon", 2004 (S.M.D. Records, cat. # SMD-004)
