Once upon a time....
It all started during sorcery college times when a young apprentice Moon was looking forward to build a flying magic ship. This ship however, is not rare or special in any kind. It is an average common magic ship. It carries dreams and treasure, freedom and burden, it pours hope and despair, and it takes you to where you (think you) belong. It maybe just a small dream to live, but it was never easy.
According to wizard history, many failed and quitted, while some died trying.
Like any other time consuming spell, he couldn't do it all on his own. He formed a union with others who share the same idea but possess different abilities. It was first formed in Jan 17th 2004. Since then, this "magic ship" is in construction. Moon named the ship, Mage.

Roots in the waste land
Mage started playing in college shows, prom nights, and some gigs. Few of them are just ok; others are just too empty to be considered as a gig, not to mention some are an EP launch. It’s a dead waste land they’re living in. Trees don’t grow here.
For better or worst, during that time their works can’t fit in nicely to any of the underground trend. “Why don’t we call the shots?”, slowly a new trend popping in the waste land. Moon decided to organize a series of on-going gig shows dedicated to Mage’s music roots, thus borne “J-rock Kingdom”. It then somehow gathered a number of audiences and friends along the way with their passion and captivating live performance.
Since then, Mage realized something is going on.
The Mage's style
Mage’s genre range from soft ballad to experimental, presented in a dark-visual image and gloomy manner, sarcastically integrate with enchanted bliss in contrast. The band spell-crafted their works in mysterious way to indirectly express themselves, hoping to leaves trail along their journey by offer this gift, to whom ever wish to take. Their works is in both English and Chinese.
