[5] Marc joined Ezee Possee as a dancer, before they released their single Everything Starts with an 'E' on Boy George's small independent label, More Protein. Marc went on to DJ and co-curate London's ACT ART events for several years. Dan Black and Stuart 'Barnaby' Moffatt joined the band's line-up in the same year. The band performed their first live gig in January 1996 at Club Skinny at HQ's in Camden, one of two clubnights, along with Arcadia in Soho, which formed the core of the Romo scene. On 12 October, Massive Ego were featured on the cover of Boyz magazine.

In 1997, You Think You're a Man a Hi-NRG cover of Divine, was released as the band's debut single. In 1997 and '98, they performed at Summer Rites Fest in Brockwell Park, Brixton. [6] Planet Earth was the second single, released in 1999, a cover of Duran Duran. September 2000 saw the band playing their first Pride festival in Nottingham.

2002 saw Steady (Eddie Orange Dasher) [7] join the band on keyboards. Steady had previously been in Leigh Bowery's band Minty, The Offset, as well as his own bands Elizabeth Bunny and Sweetie. A third single; My Heart Goes Bang (Get Me to the Doctor) (vs. Miss Dusty 'O') [8] a Dead Or Alive cover, was released later that year. A radio edit of unreleased track, Murder, was the b-side to the single, and featured Steady on guitars as well as synths. Dean Bright (ex-Dead Or Alive) also joined the band that year. Bright was also a fashion designer, whose credits included the purple coat worn by Pete Burns in both the video for You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) and on the cover of the album Youthquake .

Collaborations and change of direction (2011–2014)

In 2011, Massive began searching for a new musical direction for the band, and released the single I Idolize You , written by Massive & Thirwall. [12] It marked a darker electronic and industrial sound. Lyrically the title track of the single was a complete departure from their previous releases, and centred around the darker side of fame.

In 2012, Massive began collaborating with Irish electronic band, Empire State Human. A cover of Hazel O'Connor's Eighth Day was released digitally on Halloween, later that year, with a music video to promote the single. All profits were donated to F.R.I.E.N.D a farmed animal sanctuary in Kent, UK.

Marc continued to look for a darker sound for the band, and after the Modification remix done by Lloyd Price (ex-Sigue Sigue Sputnik) for the I Idolize You single in 2011, he joined the band in 2015 on keyboards and programming.

Comeback (2024)

In 2024, Massive Ego announced their reformation with a comeback performance at Out of Line Weekender festival 2024. [32] During the performance on 2 May, they announced an upcoming single called In Your Own Darkness. [33] As well as showcasing the new fuller live sound and image of the band, having moved on from the recognisable trademark make-up and 'Mickey Mouse' geisha hair style, in favour of a more grounded and gimmick free look going forward.

Band name

It was a kind of juxtaposition to the anxiety-ridden reality of myself. It was meant to be a mickey-take of what I was really like as a person. In hindsight, I probably wouldn't have called it that now but after 20+ years, it's a bit late to change. I think the lack of confidence is why I like to dress up, wear make-up and generally express myself through the look.

Interview with Marc Massive: Whitby Gazette [34]

The name of the band was thought up by Marc, as an ironic wordplay on his personality, compared to what was expected of him as having been a model. Seeing how most models, with being in the public eye, were focused on their image and how they portrayed themselves as being larger than life. With most buying into their own hyped up personas, and developing an ego that matched who they had convinced themselves that they were.
