They also appeared in a Tatsuya Yoshida compilation called "Devil from the East", where he reunited quite a few projects he had been involved in, as Malinconia, Ruins, Naked City or Phaidia. They started in '82 or '83. The music discribed as hard-edged, energetic goth rock with some leftover punk touches. The drummer was Yoshida, who would go on to do better, noisier things w/YBO2 and later found Ruins and a million other bands of varying quality. Phaidia's guitarist was Kawamoto, who also played in YBO2 and in the original Ruins line up.
