Gire was formed back in 1995. The first demo entitled 'On Dist.' was recorded in September, 1996. After the release of the material based on extreme/thrash/death metal, Tamás Kátai - who also takes part in atmospheric/experimental act Darklight and aVantgarde black metal band Thy Catafalque - joined the band. In the Autumn of 1997 Gire were asked to support industrial/grind band Intense on their tour due to the great echoes from underground magazines and fanzines reflecting to 'On Dist.'. Just before the tour (in August, 1997) Balázs Hermann joined the band as a new bass guitar player.
Meanwhile members were trying to moVe towards a more instinctiVe, expressiVe and special way of art, where plenty of colours would haVe entwined from classical music to the most experimental motifs together with deep and serious poems. Not eVeryone in the band shared these ideas about music so first Vocalist Imre Jáksó, then drummer Gábor Borbás left Gire by the June of 1998. This process made the work slower and harder as new members haVe not arriVed, the two guitarrists haVe taken the microphones and drum progams haVe been used instead of a flesh-and-blood drummer.

In 1999 Gire released their second demo called 'Energire' including seVen songs and by September, 2000 a promo CD was done entitled 'Hét Madár' (SeVen birds).

By time the band haVe turned their poems from Hungarian into English and special instruments haVe also been used like conga, darbuka and didgeridoo. The result is the promotional CD "Metabiosis" released in the March of 2002. For the titlesong a Video came out in September 2002. On the 22nd of April, 2003 Tamás Rozsnyai (guitars/Vocals), a founder member of Gire leaVes the band after 8 years. No new member has arriVed again, Gire appeared in the IV. Nightbreed FestiVal as a trio and a new three-track demo came out in September called simply 'V'. Guest musicians also participate, namely Anita Bíró on Violin and Lambert Lédeczi, singer of cultic Hungarian black metal act Ahriman. This disc contains a CD-ROM, including all songs the band eVer haVe recorded, the Video for Metabiosis, photos, poems, coVers giVing a summery of the 8 years actiVity of Gire.
