Álamo and Andres played in a band called Relayer while Percy and José in a band called Chicama. When both bands split up, the four decided to join together to form Feiser. The name derives from the guitar pedal "Phase". Gino Rodriguez joined the band, on keyboards.
In 1984, they recorded their first 45 rpm called "Calles Grises", which wasn't successful. In 1985 they recorded two other songs, "Meditación Infantil" and "Mundo Extraño", which did not receive much attention. That year, the band performed often in Lima and in Trujillo and Huaraz. In 1986 Gino Rodriguez left the band and they became a four-member band, also in that year they were becoming a recognized band for the many presentations.
In that year they recorded another two songs, "No Mires Atras" and "Un Lugar Para Rockear". In May 1986, they recorded another 2 songs, "Dame Una Salida" and Chicas de la Ciudad", "Dame Una Salida". In June 1987 they played in a concert in the Teatro Canoute and they opened the show of the successful Argentine band Soda Stereo in the Coliseo Amauta. They returned to this venue in October, when they played with Rio and Rhuedas in the Segundo Festival Hisparock 87. In November 1987, they opened the concert of the Argentine band Enanitos Verdes.
In December 1987, they recorded their first album in a studio, Momento de Acción, which was released in May 1988. The same year they released their 3rd single and first of the LP called "Pecado Original" which was a successful hit. The LP contained songs which were a hit like "Dame Una Salida", "Un Lugar Para Rockear" and "Pecado Original", but included other hit songs like "Momento De Acción", "Cambios" and "Esta Es La Noche", which had a mediocre video-clip, like "Momento de Acción" and "Cambios".
In 1989, drummer Andres Rojas left the band, replaced by Armando Pattroni, who had been the drummer of Trama in 1986-1988. Pattroni played only a few concerts with the band and was replaced by the young Pepe Wherrems joined the band. In 1989, they started writing songs for their 2nd LP which was never released. They wrote songs like "En Mi Pais", "Y Te Amáré", "Amor Cruel" and "Polvo En El Camino". The songs were played on the radios, but they were not commercially successful.
By 1990 the band was in crisis; they played only three concerts that year and none of their new songs were successful, so in 1991 Feiser disbanded, but they become of the best bands of all Peruvian rock history. Lead singer Álamo Perez Luna began a very successful career as a periodist.
In 2006, all the original members reunited to perform in the concert "Lo Peor De Todo" of Rio, on the 20th anniversary of the recording of their very successful album. Feiser performed and all fans were there, other bands that performed were JAS, Nosequien y Los Nosecuantos, Dudó and the successful ex-Telegraph Avenue, Chachi Luján also performed. Now Feiser is planning to release their LP "Momento De Acción" in CD format. The band is on hiatus.
