Vocalist Takeru and guitarists Masato and Yuji had previously performed in a band called Travel. After Travel disbanded, they joined with AmeriA (bass), Shouta, to form Sug in October 2006. The drummer Mitsuru then joined in November of the same year. Shouta left the band in February and was replaced by Chiyu on bass. Their first release was "7th Breeze" .The band signed to the visual-kei management PS Company, and in August 2007, the band released their first single, "Scheat". Months after the release of their first single, Sug released their first EP entitled Love Scream Party. To promote their music outside of Japan, Sug performed at "J-Rock Invasion" in Germany. Mitsuru left Sug after their live on 09 May 2009. It is supposed that Mitsuru left citing creative differences to the remaining band members. Their support drummer at the time, Shinpei, became a full-time member of the band after Mitsuru's departure. Their second studio album and their first album through Pony Canyon, Tokyo Muzical Hotel, was released on 09 March 2010. Their third studio album and their second album through Pony Canyon Thrill Ride Pirates, was released a year later, also on March 9. On 07 October 2012, SuG announced they would officially leave PSC after their performance on 29 December at Yoyogi Kyougijou Daini Taikukan, resulting in a temporary hiatus.
