ROMMEL (ロンメル) is formed by S.H.U.
Many older online sources state that guitarist HALLY was an original member, but some collectors refute this in a 2011 blog post. However, they don't state who was the guitarist at that time. Details are unclear.
By the end of the year (date unknown), the original guitarist (possibly HALLY), bassist HIKARU, and drummer Yoshiaki secede and are replaced by S.I.N, A.M.I, and U.D.A, respectively.
Sometime during the year, bassist A.M.I and drummer U.D.A secede. They are possibly replaced by TOKIHIKO and KOICHI.
The band tours with Kurt James (Black Sheep, M.A.R.S., Neil Turbin, Dr. Mastermind, Fatt Matt, Steeler, etc.).
Sources differ on whether the band broke up in August or November. Additionally, all members went to EMPEROR, but it's unclear if that was considered a new band or a name change.
