The Drives

There are two bands called The Drives; one from Malaysia and one from Japan. The Drives (Malaysia) Formerly known as Bandwagon in 2003, The Drives was formed by Rizal (ex-Radish Fan-1995) and Ricky (ex-nicestupidplayground-1993) before recruiting Bobby (ex-Groover's Lum-1994) and Nellfie (ex-Radish Fan-1995). Their first demo was recorded in 2004 but didn't make it into the market due to an unforseen reason. Later in 2005, Nellfie left the band to join nicestupidplayground and his departure changed the whole band in terms of musical influences and directions.
