The first concert took place on December 12th, 2007 at Meguro Rockmaykan.
In February 2008 their support drummer, Shizuki, became an official member and the first single Suna no hana hit the stores in July. All copies were sold out in few weeks and a second press was released on August 27th.

Art Cube had their first self-sponsored event Art Box on September 28 featuring SaTaN and The Candy Spooky Theater, followed by two oneman performances in France in October. At these three concerts the compilation album Luxurious Cube was sold as an exclusive item. A digest DVD of the European tour was distributed for free at the band's second anniversary domestic oneman show on December 12 2009.
