The band consists of Chibi (vocals), Falcore (guitars), Rainbow (guitars), Owen (synthesizers), Nate Manor (bass), and Rhim (drums). Initially known as Imagica, a name inspired by Clive Barker's fantasy novel Imajica, they changed their name to The Birthday Massacre in 2002 to avoid confusion with another group.
