Exists is a Malaysian pop rock band formed in Johor Bahru in 1991, originally under the name Exist. The group initially consisted of vocalist Mohd Ali "Mamat" Kamarudin, guitarists Azhrul "Along" Nasir and Shah Nizam Abdul "Shah" Halim, keyboardist Mohd Faizal "Ajai" Maas, bassist Musa "Musrad" Radhi, and drummer Saharudin "Ujang" Saniman. They rose to fame with their 1991 single "Untukmu Ibu" and released their debut, self-titled album the same year. They followed up with Anugerah in 1993. In 1994, Mamat left to pursue a solo career, and he was replaced by Mohd Rohaizad Mohd "Ezad" Lazim, with whom the band recorded their third album, Diammu Gunung Berapi, in 1995. After the release of Jangan Gentar, in 1997, the band added an "s" at the end of their name, becoming Exists. The album Mutan came out in 1998, and Ada was released in 2001. Two more records followed: Seperti Dulu and Paragon. In 2007, Ezad departed the group and was replaced by Zulkifli "Joey" bin Daud a year later. After the release of their 2008 compilation album Keunggulan, which included two new tracks, sung by Joey, Exists went on an extended hiatus.
