ONC was formed in 2002 as a five-piece hardcore band by the only remaining current member Brownhiro. In 2004, after excessive drinking bouts at Ebisu’s Milk and Shibuya’s Gig-antic, two members left the band and ONC became a three piece band playing mainly punk rock with the occasional ska or reggae beat thrown in. In 2007 they released their first demo, "Sounds Like Shit", with bassist Chie-zo. In 2008, bassist Takeshit replaced Chie-zo, and they started the popular “PORK CHOP” event in Shibuya’s Crawl Club. The band’s current lineup took shape in 2009, when bassist Kaz and drummer Youngman joined the band. In 2010 they secured sponsorships to hold the events “Subai” and “Beers Rain”, releasing a split CD "芯動" with Sun and touring Taiwan with Tokyo’s Kissaco.
