The members of Infants came together from Tokyo, Oslo, Leeds and rural Essex, forming the band in London, England at the end of 2005. The music website Drowned in Sound soon picked up on the band’s then unreleased recordings and live shows, describing them as "Pop terrorists: [they] sound like Melt Banana clawing the eyes out of Brainiac; only if they were brought up on insane underground dance rhythms." Their energetic sound is commonly, though not exclusively, characterised by very fast drum patterns, heavy use of guitar FX pedals and monolithic synthesiser basslines.
Their debut single “Friend Paste 7”” was released in January of 2007 through Tigertrap Records, an independent record label based in Great Britain. The single consisted of two tracks, "Firetruk Theme" and "Information".
The band have recently done remix swaps with New York's Drop the Lime.
