Psycho le Cému was formed in 1999, starting off with dark, melodic pop, but eventually distinguished themselves in the visual kei scene by empathising the cosplay aspect of the visual kei outfit.

Members frequently dress in colourful, extravagant outfits - inspired by anime and video game characters - as well as making their music upbeat and colourful.

Psycho le Cému's cosplay inspired a dedicated niche fanbase, with fans who shared the band's interest in anime and cosplay. Some single releases and events were done exclusively for members of 'Kronos', the band’s fan club.

The band creates a new set of costumes for each single. Promotional music videos often have storylines based on anime or literature.

In May 2005 vocalist DAISHI took a urine analysis that showed a positive for stimulants and was arrested by Kanagawa police. When the story broke in the media, all of the band's merchandise was removed from shelves in Japan. The following month, the band announced on their official website that they would be on hiatus due to DAISHI's arrest.

On 30 September, DAISHI was sentenced for one year and ten months' probation with a suspended sentence of three years by a court in Yokohama, Japan.

The members formed side projects during this hiatus:

- AYA and seek are members of ISABELLE
- Lida and YURA-sama are members of Dacco

All four have ended their relationship with their label, Crown Records, as well as with their management, Sweet Child Entertainments, and are pursuing their projects independently.

Psycho le Cému however toured to support the release of new album '~EPILOGUE~ Kataritsugareru Monogatari'. All Psycho le Cému merchandise has been reinstated in shops, and the 'Live in the USA II' DVD - delayed due to DAISHI's arrest - has finally been released.

As soon as the tour was over, Psycho le Cému went on what seems to be a permanent hiatus.
