Introduction

LAVA|OX|SEA (previously The Los) is the evolving species of former bands "DCTV","Baboon","Dancing Television","Dirty" and "Coffee Sugar" in Hefei. Although coming from different (even conflicting) music backgrounds, the 4 members dramatically shared some common aesthetic interests in music and live styles, so they decided to fuck each other finally in 2006.
