Max

1 MAX, which is short for Musical Active eXperience, is a Japanese pop group. Original members Mina, Reina, Lina and Nana formed MAX from their original group SUPER MONKEY'S in 1995 and released their debut single in May of that year. The SUPER MONKEY'S broke up after lead singer Namie Amuro went solo later that same year. The group's original focus was on covers of Italian dance music known as Eurobeat. They became households names in their own right when their third single, "TORA TORA TORA" landed in the top 20. After their first album, the group switched focus from covers to creating their own original music. Their first single of original music, "Give me a Shake" 1997 is their only 1 single.

In 2002, Mina left the group amid pregnancy with her first child. A new member, Aki, joined the group to take her place. Since then their popularity has greatly declined and they have since decided to concentrate on solo endeavors outside of music while releasing new material periodically.
